A5                                  G5        A5 
THERE'S A BLACK PRISON HEARSE GONNA COME AND GET ME 
   G5                                 A5 
BY DAYLIGHT I WILL PAY FOR WHAT I'VE DONE 
A5               G5            A5 
THAT TV MAN WILL NEVER TELL MY STORY 
     G5                            F5                 A5 
HE'S STANDIN IN THE RAIN, BITCHIN BOUT A DEAD MAN'S SON 
A5               G5        A5 
I GREW UP DOWN A DEAD END DIRT ROAD 
G5                                     A5 
THAT MAN I SHOT GREW UP WITH A SILVER SPOON 
A5                            F5 
WHILE HIS MAMA TUCKED HIM IN, MINE WAS STONED ON GIN 
    G5                             A5 
AND HOWLIN' AT A BIG OL' CORNBREAD MOON 
 
 
A5                 G5                A5 
SWEET FORGIVENESS, COULD YA ROLL ME EASY 
  F5              G5                A5 
I KNOW JESUS GONE AND DONE THE BEST HE CAN 
A5                        G5                  A5 
BUT IF HEAVEN'S MY WOMAN, YA'LL NEED TO UNDERSTAND 
         G5                     F5                  A5 
HELL'S A $2 DOLLAR PISTOL IN A CHEATED MAN'S......HAND  
 
I HELD A LOVE FOR A TRAVELIN' WOMAN 
ROAMED THE DITCHES OF HER HEART, WHERE LOVE IS LOST OR WON 
YEA, SHE SWORE THAT SHE LOVED ME, SHE WAS LAYING DOWN BEHIND ME 
TRYIN TO FILL THAT EMPTY FEELING THAT HER RAISING LEFT UNDONE 
SOME THINGS SHOULD REMAIN UNSPOKEN 
THEM DARKER THINGS THEY SHOULD REMAIN UNDONE 
BUT THE DEVIL HOLD THE REINS OF A HORSE THEY CALL COCAINE 
YOU CAN RIDE ALL NIGHT, BUT YOU NEVER GONNA CATCH THE SUN 
 
IN THE GREY MORNING LIGHT NORTH OF DALLAS 
WITH A SINGLE SHOT THEY DEPARTED THAT SWEET TOWN 
HELL, I AIN'T THAT GOOD AN AIM, I DON'T HAVE TO EXPLAIN 
WHAT THEY WERE DOING WHEN HARD TIMES TOOK'EM DOWN 
 
SWEET FORGIVENESS, COULD YA ROLL ME EASY 
 
I KNOW JESUS GONE AND DONE THE BEST HE CAN 
 
BUT IF HEAVEN'S MY WOMAN, YA'LL NEED TO UNDERSTAND 
 
HELL'S A $2 DOLLAR PISTOL IN A CHEATED MAN'S......HAND
