C F C

As he lay dying, he said I hate you

C G

And I hope your soul goes straight to hell

C F C

If you think it's justice, you'll hang for murder

G C

To what degree, I'll never tell

C F C

Need water for my horses is all I'm asking

G

You can tell the law, which way I go

C F C

All of my dreams, are only wind songs

G C

Through the trees that seldom blow

Well I don't mind dying

Had my share of living, and I played it straight, when I knew the rules

he said he loved me, and I believed him

Now I'm all alone, the original fool

Chorus

If you see Jesus, tell him I'm sorry

For I did not know what I had done

Like a dirty dog, I was drunk on whiskey

And I killed a man, just to have a little fun

Chorus
