[Verse]
Am
I never would have hitchhiked to Birmingham
If it hadn't been for love
Am
I never would have caught the train to Louisiana
      F
If it hadn't been for love
Am
Never would have run through the blinding rain
    F
Without one dollar to my name
F                       E               Am
                                         (Riff)
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
Am
I never would have seen the trouble that I'm in
If it hadn't been for love
Am
I would have been gone like a wayward wind
      F
If it hadn't been for love
Am
Nobody knows it better than me
F
I wouldn't be wishing I was free
      F                  E              Am            C
                                          (Walk up to )
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
[Chorus]
C         G      Dm        Am
Four cold walls against my will
   C       G         Dm    Am
At least I know he's lying still
C         G         Dm    Am
Four cold walls without parole
C          G    Dm    Am
Lord have mercy on my soul
[Intro Riff]
[Verse]
Am
Never would have gone to that side of town
If it hadn't been for love
Am
Never would have took a mind to track him down
       F
If it hadn't been for love
Am
I never would have loaded up a .44
F
Put myself behind a jail house door
     F                  E              Am
                                         (Riff)
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
[Chorus]
C         G      Dm        Am
Four cold walls against my will
   C       G         Dm    Am
At least I know he's lying still
C         G         Dm     Am
Four cold walls without parole
C          G    Dm    Am
Lord have mercy on my soul
