Grateful Dead — Sing Me Back Home

A              E                 D              A
The warden led the prisoner down the hallway to his doom 
         A             Asus4    A       E  B E
I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest 
       A                  E             D                     A
And I heard him tell the warden just before they reached my cell 
        A              E                 A  D  A
Let my guitar playin' friend sing my request 
 
 A            E      D              A
Sing me back home a song I used to hear. 
 A    Asus4  A             E    B E
Make my old memories come alive. 
 A        E       D             A
Sing me away and turn back the year. 
 A    Asus4   A       E     A  D A
Sing me back home before I die. 
 
I recall last Sunday morning when the choir from off the street 
Came in to sing a few old gospel songs 
And I heard him tell the singers there's a song my mother sang 
Can I hear it before you travel on. 
 
Sing me back home a song I used to hear. 
Make my old memories come alive. 
Sing me away and turn back the year. 
Sing me back home before I die.
