They followed him for seven day
F#m
And lost him when he turned away
A E A B
>From where they thought he would surely go

But they caught him up in Lewistown
F#m
And when they shot that convict down
A B
They could hear him praying soft and slow
B E B A E B A
Deliver me let your waters wash over me
E B A G#m C#m C#m B
Deliver me I'm lost and alone
A E F#m
And I wanna come home

She was just a simple girl
F#m
Been a step behind a changing world
A E A B
Ever since the day she was born
E
So she found herself a city Jim
F#m
He loved her for ahile and when
A B
She cried as he walking out the door
B E B A E B A
Deliver me let your waters wash over me

You been using and you been using all your precious time
C#m F#m
No use crying you've been trying to stay ahead
F#major
Of what you left behind
A
You oughta stop trying
E
I've been here for oh so long
F#m
Only barely holding on
A E A B
To everything I always thought was true
E
But all my diamonds turned to dust
F#m
There's nowhere I can place my trust
A B
Someone has the answer but I don't know who
B E B A E B A
Deliver me let your waters wash over me
E B A G#m C#m C#m B
Deliver me I'm lost and alone
A E
And I wanna come home
