Through the years, many [Cm] great country [F] songs have been [G] written, [Ab] songs that endure.
And of no [Db] song is this more true than the first [Dbm] country song ever to sell one [Ab] million
records, first recorded by Vernon [Bb] Douthard back in [E] [C] 1924.
The Prisoner song has a simple but a strong lesson [Fm]
that when a man is as low as he can
go, when he's at rock [Db] bottom, fame, [Dbm] fortune, nothing else [Ab] is important except that somebody loves him.
Oh, I wish I had someone [Db] to love me,
[Eb] someone [Bbm] to call [Ab] me their own.
Oh, I wish I had someone [Db] to live with,
[Bbm] cause I'm tired [Eb] of [A] living [Ab] alone.
Oh, please meet me tonight [Eb] [Db] in the [Abm] [Dbm] moonlight.
[Db]
[Eb] Please meet me tonight [Ab] all alone.
For I have a sad
[Eb] story [Cm] [Db] to [Ab] tell [Dbm] [Db] you.
[Eb] It's a story that's never [Ab] been told.
I'll be carried to the [Cm] new jail [Db] [Abm] [Dbm] tomorrow.
[Db]
[Dbm] [Eb] Leaving my little darling [Ab] all alone.
With a cold prison wall [C] [Db] all around me.
And [Eb] my head on a pillow [Ab] of stone.
Now if I had the wings [Db] of an angel,
[Dbm] [Eb] over these prison walls [Ab] I would fly.
I would fly to the [Ebm] arms [Db] of my darling,
[Eb] and there I'd be willing to [Ab] die.
