Judy, I feel weary now, older than a man of 33 
G5                                    C5            D5               G5 
The gates of Hell just opened, after 20 years the warden says I'm free 
D5 
Revenge was all I wanted 
       C5                   D5                   G5 
When I killed the man that took your life that day 
     G5                            C5 
I've had my satisfaction, but the price was more  
     D5                   G5 
Than love should have to pay 
  
Chorus: 
D5                                                   
Lord knows you weren't no lady 
        C5             D5                G5 
And the witnesses all swore you was to blame 
        D5 
And the way you teased the menfolk 
    C5                           G5              D5 
The jury all agreed you knew no shame, knew no shame 
  
Well I'm glad that you can't see me now 

You'd probably say I do not look my best 

Those lawyers took my money 

And that Louisiana road gang took the rest 
  

D5                             C5               D5          G5 
And Judy I can't even conjure up your picture in my mind today 
G5                                C5             D5            G5 
Lately I've been thinkin' what a fool I was to love you anyway 
  
Well it all seems kind of useless 
As I place these flowers on your grave today 
I don't know what I'm doing here 
I've forgotten all the things I came to say
