A E A |
|
I found him by the railroad track this morning |
|
A E A |
|
I could see that he was nearly dead |
|
D A |
|
I knelt down beside him and I listened |
|
E |
|
Just to hear the words the dying fellow said |
|
A E A |
|
He said they let me out of prison down in Frisco |
|
A E A |
|
For ten long years I've paid for what I've done |
|
D A |
|
I was trying to get back to Louisiana |
|
E A |
|
To see my Rose and get to know my son |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
D A |
|
Give my love to Rose please won't you mister |
|
E A |
|
Take her all my money, tell her to buy some pretty clothes |
|
D A |
|
Tell my boy his daddy's so proud of him |
|
E A |
|
And don't forget to give my love to Rose |
|
A E A |
|
Tell them I said thanks for waiting for me |
|
A E A |
|
Tell my boy to help his mom at home |
|
D A |
|
Tell my Rose to try to find another |
|
E |
|
For it ain't right that she should live alone |
|
A E A |
|
Mister here's a bag with all my money |
|
A E A |
|
It won't last them long the way it goes |
|
D A |
|
God bless you for finding me this morning |
|
E A |
|
And don't forget to give my love to Rose |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
D A |
|
Give my love to Rose please won't you mister |
|
E A |
|
Take her all my money, tell her to buy some pretty clothes |
|
D A |
|
Tell my boy his daddy's so proud of him |
|
E A |
|
And don't forget to give my love to Rose |
