Gm                  A#     C     Gm
Well up here's the window sitting way up high
Gm           A#    C     Gm
I can't look up enough to see the sky
Gm               A#  C    Gm
There ain't no good light here below
          A# C Gm
Death Row
          A# C Gm
Death Row

Don't want no preacher man to come around
I don't need him to lay my burden down
Already told Jesus everything I know
Death Row
Death Row

When it's time for my last request
Tell my mama that I did my best
Tell my baby that I love her so
Death Row
Death Row
Death Row
Death Row

Got a calendar up on my wall
Marking days till I get the call
Till it's time for me to go
Death Row
Death Row
