Theyre building the gallows outside of my own cell. Ive got 25 minutes to
B E
go. In 25 minutes Ill be in hell, Ive got 24 minutes to go. Well they gave
B
me some peas for my last meal with 23 minutes to go. And you know nobodys
E
asking me oh how I feel Ive got 22 minutes to go. So I wrote the Govnor and
B
the whole damn ???? with 21 minutes to go. And I called up the Mayor and you
E
know hes out to lunch with 20 more minutes to go. And the Sheriff said Boy,
B
I wanna watch you die with 19 minutes to go. So I spit in his face and then I
E
kicked him in the eye with 18 minutes to go.
G D
Well I called to the warden to take my plea with 17 minutes to go. He says
G
Call me back in a week or three with 16 minutes to go. Well my lawyer says
D
hes sorry and hell miss my case with 15 minutes to go. Well if youre so
G
sorry then come and take my place with 14 minutes to go. Well he comes Padre
D
gonna set me free with 13 minutes to go. And Im stuck in my bed and you know
G
I feel so fuckin cold with 12 more minutes to go. Now theyre testing the
D
trap, Ive got chills down my spine with 11 more minutes to go. Cuz the god-
G
damn thing seems to work just fine with 10 more minutes to go. Im waiting for
D
the pardon gonna set me free with 9 more minutes to go. But this aint the
G
movies so the hell with me with 8 more minutes to go.
A
Now Im climbing up the ladder that the scaffolder built with 7 more minutes to
E A
go. I better watch my step before I break my leg with 6 more minutes to go.
With my feet on the trap and my head in the noose Ive got 5 more minutes to
E A
go. Well come on someone and cut me loose Ive got 4 more minutes to go. I
E
can see the mountains I can see the sky with 3 more minutes to go. And its
A
too damn pretty for a man to want to die with 2 more minutes to go. I can hear
E
the bush and I see the crows with 1 more minute to go. And now Im swinging
here I go.
