Blue Mountain Penitentiary
A
Been housing sin for centuries
F#m G
I am just a number, not a name
G
And you wear a gun and hold the keys
A
But you've always been good to me
F#m G
Only see the man and not the shame
G
And I haven't seen my wife in years
A
Last memory is her in tears
F#m G
Wonder if she'll even come tonight
G
There's something that she doesn't know
A
She needs to hear before I go
F#m G
Could you tell her I'm alright
G A
Would you pray with me
F#m G
Touch the hand of a sinner
G A
Would you stay with me
F#m G
And be my guest for dinner

G
Looks like this is my dyin' day
A
They tell me that's the only way
F#m G
I'll ever see the other side again
G
But they don't know who's been in here
A
Every day the last three years
F#m G
Yes, sir, I'm the one who let Him in
G
And He comes and sits down in my chair
A
Weeping, breathing this same air
F#m G
And opens up His hands
G
Reminds me that He walked this mile
A
Suffered for a little while
F#m G
And made me an innocent man
G A
Would you pray with me
F#m G
Touch the hand of a sinner
G A
Would you stay with me
F#m G
And be my guest for dinner

Would you pray with me
F#m G
Touch the hand of a sinner
G A
Would you stay with me
F#m G
And be my guest for dinner
