The big court room was crowded while the jury heard my plea
                                                                                          F#7                                                 B7  
I said, sir I'm not guilty of the crime you're accusing me
     E                                                                                      A                              E  
I guess no one believed me for they only truned away
                                                                                     B7                                                              E  
To tell the judge their verdict while I bowed my head and prayed
                                                                                             A                                              E  
I heard my mother weepin' when the judge said, guilty son
                                                                                                        F#7                                            B7  
I'll have to give you life now for the crime that you have done
          E                                                                                      A                                         E  
She cried, don't take my darlin' he's all the world to me
                                                                                  B7                                              E  
He's all I have to live for, I pray you'll set him free
                                                                                        A                              E  
His father was a drunkard, went away left us alone
                                                                                                     F#7                                      B7  
I washed to keep from starving and to raise our darling son
          E                                                                      A                                            E  
Now if you take him from me his face no more I'll see
                                                                                             B7                                            E  
Just put your son in his place his mother's here with me
                                                                                             A                                              E  
I heard my mother weepin' when the judge said, guilty son
                                                                                                        F#7                                            B7  
I'll have to give you life now for the crime that you have done
          E                                                                                      A                                         E  
She cried, don't take my darlin' he's all the world to me
                                                                                  B7                                              E  
He's all I have to live for, I pray you'll set him free
