Four Walls Of Raiford Chords

[Verse]
E
Well them four walls of Raiford, closing in
on me.
B                              A         
Doin' three to five hard labor for armed 
G     E
robbery.
E
I had two years well behind me, but I could
not wait the time
B                                        
For everytime I thought about it, Lord I 
A              G    E
died some more inside.

E
And they put stripes on my back.  Memories 
of hurt.
B                                 A        
And the only time I seen sunshine is when I
      G     E
shoveled dirt.
E
Digging ditches on the chain gain and 
sleeping in the holes.
B                                    A     
Oh Lord, please forgive me because I could 
   G    E
not wait paroll.

[Chorus]
A
And I'm coming home to see my Jesus.
E
Lord, it feels so close this time.
B                                       
Please have mercy on a soldier from the 
A        G      E
Florida-Georgia line.
A
When they find me they must kill me.
E                               B
Oh Jesus save my soul.  I can't go back 
down to Raiford.
        A         G     E
I can't take that anymore.

[Verse]
E
When Vietnam was over there was no work 
here for me.
B                                A      G  
I had a hungry wife and children that I had
   E
to feed.
E
Now they say I'm guilty, when they find me 
I must die.
B                             A     G      
Only me and Jesus know that I never stole a
E
dime.

E
These last few years behind me, Lord 
they've been so sad.
B                                        
I fought proudly for my country when the 
A        G   E
times were bad.
E
And when they find me and kill me, yes when
they shoot me down.
B                                       
Won't you fly old glory proudly with my 
A      G      E
medals on the ground.

[Chorus]
A
And I'm coming home to see my Jesus.
E
Lord, it feels so close this time.
B                                       
Please have mercy on a soldier from the 
A        G      E
Florida-Georgia line.
A
When they find me they must kill me.
E                               B
Oh Jesus save my soul.  I can't go back 
down to Raiford.
        A         G     E
I can't take that anymore.

[Chorus]
A
And I'm coming home to see my Jesus.
E
Lord, it feels so close this time.
B                                       
Please have mercy on a soldier from the 
A        G      E
Florida-Georgia line.
A
When they find me they must kill me.
E                               B
Oh Jesus save my soul.  I can't go back 
down to Raiford.
        A         G     E
I can't take that anymore.
