I found him by the railroad track this morning

I could see that he was nearly deadI knelt down beside him and I listenedJust to hear the words the dying fellow said

He said they let me out of prison down in FriscoFor ten long years I've paid for what I've doneI was trying to get back to LouisianaTo see my Rose and get to know my son

Chorus:

Give my love to Rose please won't you misterTake her all my money, tell her to buy some pretty

clothesTell my boy his daddy's so proud of him

And don't forget to give my love to Rose

Tell them I said thanks for waiting for meTell my boy to help his mom at homeTell my Rose to try to find another

For it ain't right that she should live alone

Mister here's a bag with all my moneyIt won't last them long the way it goesGod bless you for finding me this morning

And don't forget to give my love to Rose

Chorus:Give my love to Rose please won't you misterTake her all my money, tell her to buy some pretty

clothesTell my boy his daddy's so proud of himAnd don't forget to give my love to Rose

I was standing by my windowOn one cold and cloudy dayWhen I saw that hearse come rollingFor to carry my mother away

Will the circle be unbrokenBy and by, Lord, by and byThere's a better home a-waitingIn the sky, Lord, in the sky

I said to that undertakerUndertaker please drive slowFor this lady you are carryingLord, I hate to see here go

Will the circle be unbrokenBy and by, Lord, by and by

There's a better home a-waitingIn the sky, Lord, in the sky

Oh, I followed close behind herTried to hold up and be braveBut I could not hide my sorrowWhen they laid her in the grave

Will the circle be unbrokenBy and by, Lord, by and byThere's a better home a-waitingIn the sky, Lord, in the sky

I went back home, my home was lonesomeMissed my mother, she was gone All of my brothers, sisters cryingWhat a home so sad and lone

Will the circle be unbrokenBy and by, Lord, by and byThere's a better home a-waitingIn the sky, Lord, in the sky

We sang the songs of childhood

Hymns of faith that made us strongOnes that mother Maybelle taught usHear the angels sing along

Will the circle be unbrokenBy and by, Lord, by and byThere's a better home a-waitingIn the sky, Lord, in the sky

Will the circle be unbrokenBy and by, Lord, by and byThere's a better home a-waitingIn the sky, Lord, in the sky

Well I don't know why I came here tonight

I got the feeling that something ain't right

G7 

I'm so scared in case I fall off my chairD 

And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs

Clowns to the left of me

C  G  D 

Jokers to the right, here I am

Stuck in the middle with you

Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you

And I'm wondering what it is I should doIt's so hard to keep this smile from my face

Losing control, yeah, I'm all over the place

Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right

Here I am, Stuck in the middle with you.

Bridge:

G7 

Well you started out with nothing and you're proud that

you're a

D Self made man

G7 

And your friends, they all come crawlin, slap you on the

back and say

D  A7 

^^

Please.... Please.....

Third Verse:

Trying to make some sense of it all

But I can see that it makes no sense at all

Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor

Cause I don't think that I can take anymore

Clowns...

(Intrumental Verse)

Intro - C, F handful of times

[C]Early one morning

With [F]time to kill

I [Am]borrowed Jeb's rifle

And [F]sat on the hillI [C]saw a lone rider

[F]Crossing the plain

I [Am]drew a bead on him

To [F]practice my aim

[Dm]My brother's rifle

Went [G]off in my hand

A shot rang out

[C]Across the land

The [F]horse he kept running

The [Am]rider was dead

I [C]hung my head I [F]hung my head[C]

[C]I set off running

To [F]wake from the dream

[Am]My brother's rifle

Went [F]into the stream

[C]I kept on running

[F]Into the salt lands

And [Am]that's where they found me

My [F]head in my hands

The [Dm]sheriff he asked me

[G]Why had I runThen it came to me

Just [C]what I had done

And [F]all for no reason

Just [Am]one piece of lead

I [C]hung my head I [F]hung my head

[C]

[C]Here in the courthouse

The [F]whole town is there

[Am]I see the judge

High [F]up in his chair

"Ex[C]plain to the courtroomWhat [F]went through your mind

And [Am]we'll ask the jury

What [F]verdict they find"

I said [Dm]"I felt the power

Of [G]death over life

I orphaned his children

I [C]widowed his wife

I [F]beg their forgiveness

I [Am]wish I was dead"

I [C]hung my head, I [F]hung my head

[C][C]Early one morning

With [F]time to kill

[Am]I see the gallows

[F]Up on the hill

And [C]out in the distance

A [F]trick of the brain

I [Am]see a lone rider[F]Crossing the plain

[Dm]He's come to fetch me

To [G]see what they done

We'll ride together

[C]'Til kingdom come

I [F]pray for God's mercy

For [F]soon I'll be dead

I [C]hung my head, I [F]hung my head

I [C]hung my head, I [F]hung my head

I [C]hung my head, I [F]hung my head

Am  D 

Is it getting better

F  G 

Or do you feel the same

Am  D 

Will it make it easier on you now

F  G You got someone to blame

You say

Am 

One love

One life

When it's one need

in the night

It's one loveAm 

We get to share it

It leaves you baby

If you don't care for it

Am, D, F, G 

Did I disappoint you

Or leave a bad taste in your mouth

You act like you never had love

And you want me to go without

Well it's too late

Tonight

To drag the past out

Into the light

We're one

But we're not the same

We get to carry each other

Carry each other

One

Have you come here for forgiveness

Have you come to raise the dead

Have you come here to play Jesus

To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much

More than a lot

You gave me nothing

Now it's all I got

We're one

But we're not the same

We hurt each other

Then we do it again

You say

(Bridge)C

  Love is a temple

Am 

Love a higher law

Love is a temple

Am 

Love the higher lawC 

You ask me to enter

But then you make me crawl

And I can't be holding on

To what you got

When all you got is hurt

One love

One bloodOne life

You got to do what you should

One life

With each other

Sisters

Brothers

One life

But we're not the same

We get to carry each other

Carry each other

One

One.
