Tono: D

Introducción:

D                                              A7  
I was born - - in Macon, Georgia
                                                                                          D  
They kept my dad - - in the Macon jail
                                                          D7                    G  
Dad said "Son, if you keep your hands clean
  D                                                 A7                                              D  
You won't hear them bloodhounds on your trail"
  D                                                                            A7  
But I fell in - - with bad companions
                                                                          D  
We robbed a man - - in Tennessee
                                                                                D7         G  
The sheriff caught me - - way up in Nashville
                D                                         A7                              D  
They locked me up and threw away the key
        D                                                                         A7  
I washed my hands - - in muddy water
                                                                                                                  D  
I washed my hands - - but they didn't come clean
                                                             D7         G  
I tried to do - - like Daddy told me
                  D                                                 A7                                      D  
But I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream
I asked the jailor - - "When's my time up?"
