Richard Shindell - Sing Me Back Home
The Gwarden led a Dprisoner down the Challway to his Gdoom
I got up to say good-bye like all the Drest
And I Gheard him tell the Dwarden just beCfore he reached my Gcell
"Let my guitar playing Dfriend do my reGquest"
CHORUS:
Let him sing me back Dhome with a Csong I used to Ghear
Make my old memories come aDlive
GTake me aDway and Cturn back the Gyears
Sing Me Back DHome before I Gdie
I recall last Sunday Dmorning, a Cchoir from along the Gstreet
Came in to sing a few old gospel Dsongs
And I Gheard him tell the Dsingers, "There's a Csong my mama Gsang.
Could you sing it once beDfore we move aGlong?"
CHORUS:
Sing me back Dhome with a Csong I used to Ghear
Make my old memories come aDlive
GTake me aDway and Cturn back the Gyears
Sing Me Back DHome before I Gdie
INSTRUMENTAL:  (same as Chorus)
CHORUS:
Won't you sing me back Dhome with a Csong I used to Ghear
Make my old memories come aDlive
GTake me aDway and Cturn back the Gyears
Sing Me Back DHome before I Gdie
Sing Me Back DHome before I Cdie__G_
