Am
The night-time crept quickly
F
And finished the last of the Sun
Am
I closed my eyes and tried hard
F
To forget what I'd done
Am
There's darkness sweeps down
F
From above and consumes my soul
G F Am
Like night it's so empty and bitterly cold
Am
I'm heavy with burdens
F
That shatter my last chance at sleep
Am
I hear them all crying
F
See my poor mother weep
Am
A guard on my left
F
A gavel slams down on my right
G F
And iron bars close
Am
On a thirty year night
F C G
Oh Lord, take me home
F G Am
Oh Lord, take me home
F C G
Oh Lord, take me home
F G Am
Oh Lord, take me home
Am
I scribble a note
F
Say I'm sorry that it happened this way
Am
Exhaling my last breath so free
F
Knowing not what to say
Am
The light burns my eyes
F
But I see peace so clear
G F
My heart bids my soul a farewell
Am
Feet kicking the air
F C G
Oh Lord, take me home
F C G
Oh Lord, take me home
F C G
Oh Lord, take me home
F C G
Oh Lord, take me home
