[B]
[A] [E]
I've got a sad, [B] sad story, friend, [A] that I don't like [E] to tell.
I had a home [B] and family when [A] they locked me in [E] this cell.
[A] I've been in [B] here eighteen years, [A] a long, long [E] time, I know.
But time don't mean [B] a thing to me, [A] cause I've got life [E] to go.
Well, I went one night where [B] the lights were bright, [A] just to see what I [E] could see.
I met up with [B] an old friend who [A] just thought the world [E] of me.
Well, he [A] bought me drinks and [B] he took me to [A] every honky-tonk in [E] town.
Then words were said, [B] and now he's dead, I just had to bring [E] him down.
Well, it's been a long, long [B] time now since [A] I've heard from my wife.
I know I'd be [B] there with her yet if [A] I hadn't used [E] the knife.
Well, [A] I bet that little [B] girl of mine [A] don't realize [E] her daddy's been here [B] eighteen years [A] and still got [E] life to go.
Well, I bet there's not [B] one man outside [A] that's spent this [E] long in jail.
I'll be here in [B] this prison [A] till my body's [E] just a shell.
No, [A] I can't be free [B] to go and see [A] the ones that I [E] love so.
I've been in [B] here eighteen years, [A] I've still got [E] life to go.
[A] Yes, I still got life [E] to go.
[A] Oh, I still got [E] life to go.
[A] [E]
