go. In 25 minutes I&rsquo ll be in hell, I&rsquo ve got 24 minutes to go. Well they gave
B
me some peas for my last meal with 23 minutes to go. And you know nobody&rsquo s
E
asking me oh how I feel I&rsquo ve got 22 minutes to go. So I wrote the Gov&rsquo nor and
B
the whole damn bunch with 21 minutes to go. And I called up the Mayor and you
E
know he&rsquo s out to lunch with 20 more minutes to go. And the Sheriff said &ldquo Boy,
B
I wanna watch you die&rdquo with 19 minutes to go. So I laugh in his face and then I
E
spit in his eye with 18 minutes to go.

G
&ldquo Call me back in a week or three&rdquo with 16 minutes to go. Well my lawyer says
D

G

D

D
trap, I&rsquo ve got chills down my spine with 11 more minutes to go. Cuz the god-
