25 minutes to go

• E

E 							  E 
They?re building the gallows outside of my own cell.  I?ve got 25 minutes to  
B                  						      E 
go.  In 25 minutes I?ll be in hell, I?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?s  
							 E 
asking me oh how I feel I?ve got 22 minutes to go.  So I wrote the Gov?nor and  
						B 
the whole damn ???? with 21 minutes to go.  And I called up the Mayor and you  
							 E 
know he?s out to lunch with 20 more minutes to go.  And the Sheriff said ?Boy,  
						   B	 
I wanna watch you die? with 19 minutes to go.  So I spit in his face and then I  
						  E 
kicked him in the eye with 18 minutes to go.

Well I called to the warden to take my plea with 17 minutes to go.  He says  
								G 
?Call me back in a week or three? with 16 minutes to go.  Well my lawyer says  
								D 
he?s sorry and he?ll miss my case with 15 minutes to go.  Well if you?re so  
								G 
sorry then come and take my place with 14 minutes to go.  Well he comes Padre  
					    D 
gonna set me free with 13 minutes to go.  And I?m stuck in my bed and you know  
							G 
I feel so fuckin cold with 12 more minutes to go.  Now they?re testing the  
									D 
trap, I?ve got chills down my spine with 11 more minutes to go.  Cuz the god- 
									G 
damn thing seems to work just fine with 10 more minutes to go.  I?m waiting for  
							      D 
the pardon gonna set me free with 9 more minutes to go.  But this ain?t the  
							    G 
movies so the hell with me with 8 more minutes to go.

Now I?m climbing up the ladder that the scaffolder built with 7 more minutes to  
 E										       A 
go. I better watch my step before I break my leg with 6 more minutes to go.   
											   
With my feet on the trap and my head in the noose I?ve got 5 more minutes to  
 E										    A 
go.  Well come on someone and cut me loose I?ve got 4 more minutes to go.  I  
									    E 
can see the mountains I can see the sky with 3 more minutes to go.  And it?s  
									     A 
too damn pretty for a man to want to die with 2 more minutes to go.  I can hear  
							     E 
the bush and I see the crows with 1 more minute to go.  And now I?m swinging  
 
here I go.
