A E

Like a bullet from a gun, 18 years old

D

A need for adventure, and a want full of sin

A E

He hit the highway, he was nowhere bound

D

Lookin' for everything, a lot of trouble's all he found

Chorus:

A E

And he turned 19, in a house made of stone

D

Iron for windows, so damn far from home

A E

In Huntsville Texas, he's got a brand new name

D

Out here we call him, inmate 1928

Hell's his next stop, we know he's goin' there

Cause the state of Texas, just sentenced him to the chair

And no one's there to cry, no one to watch him die

Just him and his prayers, and his heart's filled with fear

Chorus

And he turned twenty, on streets made of gold

Angels as far as his eyes could see, he finally made it home

He sits next to Jesus now, cause God's finally cleared his name

And up here no one will ever call him, inmate 1928
