E5        C5
Aaaaaahhhh

E5                  G5
The heat of a summer day
G5                    G5   A5
Down and Down on my back
A5            A5            A5    E5
Work like a dog in the sunlight
E5          E5          E5
Tryin' to pay the people back
E5          G5                   A5
I killed a man in the springtime
A5      A5 E5              E5
Had to happen just to make it damn
E5          G5          A5            E5
To buy my baby the things that she needs
E5                            G5
I guess I didn't think twice
                              A5
And now I have to pay the price
                         E5
For killing a man of another creed

E5      C5  D5   E5           C5
Aaaaahhh   aaaahh  aaah

( E5 )

B5         F#5              B5
I guess I have to be strong
B5              F#5               D5  D#5  E5
The rest of my life can't be too long
E5        G5            A5
I know I die some day
 A5               E5
And we're going far away
 E5             G5            A5              E5
And you won't remember the things that I've done.

E5
I feel a shedding tear
G5
It's only been a year
A5
But I know I'll be dead
             E5
When that ev'ning comes

E5      C5  D5      E5      C5       E5
Aaaaaahhh    aaaah   aaaaah

( E5 )

I guess I have to be strong
B5              F#5               D5  D#5  E5
The rest of my life can't be too long

E5      C5  D5      E5      C5       E5
Aaaaaahhh    aaaah   aaaaah
