Well, if I [F] had the wings of an angel, [C] over these prison walls I would [G] fly.
[C] Yes, I'd fly to the [F] arms of my darling, and there I'd be [G] willing to die.
And I wish I had someone to [F] love me, [C] someone to call [G] me their own.
[C] And I wish I had [F] someone to live with, [C] cause I'm so [G] tired of [C] living alone.
Please meet me tonight [F] in the moonlight, [C] please meet me tonight [G] all alone.
[Dm] [C] For I have a sad story [F] to tell you, it's [C] a story [G] that's never [C] been told.
I guess I'm gonna be carried to the new jail tomorrow, [F] [C] and that means I'll be leaving my poor darling [G] alone.
[C] And with those old cold prison bars [F] all around me, [C] I'm gonna lay [G] there with my head on a pillow [C] of stone.
You [D]
know I had a big old grand [G] ship out on the ocean, [D] why it was all mounted with silver and gold.

And if I had the wings [G] of an angel, [D] over these prison walls [A] I would fly.
[D] And I'd fly to the arms [G] of my darling, [D] and there [A] I'd be willing [D] to die.
