F# Outside of Macon off a country road Justice was forsaken when A B they let the wrong man go F# Johnny Law was shady first one on the scene A B They called it murder in the first degree Dead man walking, walking down the hall Judge says guilty but still he's standing tall Dead man walking they say he broke the law Taking the life of another man who done his daughter wrong Chorus: F# B Light them up, lay them down A B F# Take them out but there's more of us around When wrong is right and right is wrong Oh there's a dead man walking tonight walk on If I ask you a question, would you tell the truth Would you pull the triger if you were standing in his shoes Dead man walking I know what I'd do If someone hurt my baby I'd be walking too Chorus Yeah So if I ask you that question, would you tell the truth?
