Intro : D G D G

C                                Dm
The preacher talked to me and he smiled,
        G                               C
Said, "Come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile.
        C                        Dm
Now for once in your life you're alone,
         G                            A
But you ain't got a dime, there's no time for the phone."

           D                       Em       G    A      D
I've just got to get a message to you, hold on,    hold on.
        D                         Em            G  A       D  G    (pause) 
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on,   hold on.

C                    Dm
I told him I'm in no hurry,
       G                             C
But if I broke her heart, won't you tell her I'm sorry.
         C                      Dm
And for once in my life I'm a - lone,
          G                          A
And I've got to let her know just in time before I go.

           D                      Em        G    A        D
I've just got to get a message to you, hold on,    hold  on.
        D                         Em            G  A       D  G (pause)  
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on,   hold on.



       C                       Dm
Well I laughed but that didn't hurt,
          G                          C
And it's only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt.
         C                        Dm
Now I'm crying but deep down in - side,
        G                      A
Well I did it to him, now it's my turn to die.

           D                       Em       G    A      D
I've just got to get a message to you, hold on,    hold on.
        D                         Em            G   A       D        
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on,    hold on.




Key change at end:
          E                       F#m        A   B    E
I've just got to get a message to her, hold on, hold on.
          E                       F#m           A  B    E       
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on     

Hope you enjoy  ……. Garry Smythe
