These four walls of Farnworth

On a cold jailhouse floor

Tonight I'll ride the lightning
D D G G Gmaj7 Gmaj7 C/G C/G
To my final judgement day


G G Gmaj7 Gmaj7 C/G C/G
Every life owes a death

I owe mine to this state
G G Gmaj7 Gmaj7 C/G C/G
For shootin' that boy to death

Now his mama sits there smilin'

As the boss yells, Roll on one

Get me out of here

I see the preacher's eyes

To my final resting place

Bm Bm C C
A A hungry blue-eyed baby cryin'

Made me rob that store
Bm Bm C C
And as that boy lay there dyin'
G G
I dropped my pistol on the floor

Yeah I'd take it all back

But there's nothin' I can do

They've covered my face

And the order's gone through

As the boss yells, Roll on two

up and out of here

I close my eyes and slowly rise

Let my body leave this chair
G G Gmaj7 Gmaj7 C C

For livin' my life this way

Tonight I ride the lightning

To my final resting place
