[Em] And I went away [D] quietly, my head began to fall and cry.
Well, they sent a preacher down on the cell, said, Lord, he's [A] your only hope.
[Em] He's the only [G] friend that you're [D] going to have when you head down the pocket road.
Well, I guess I could have kept on [G] preaching Christmas, but it turns it back [A] on me.
[Em] I put a homemade blazer, [G] that [D] golden throat, and asked the deputy for the key.

[D]
It ain't the first close call I ever [G] had, I'm sure you already [E] know.
I [Em] had some help from you, [D] Lord, the devil himself's been a straight way to touch and go.
Yeah, but who [G] in the hell am I talking to?
Ain't no one here but me.
[Em] And then he cocked both his pistols [C] and he spit in the dirt and [G] he walked out [D] in the street.
[N]
Thank you.

Now that song, I wrote that song a long time ago.
I wrote it when I was 19 years old, actually, [G]
[D] which was a long time ago.
And it's exactly the kind of song one writes when they're 19 years old.
[E] I'm very proud of it.
I still sing it.
