Tell them Amall just how I planned
GTo kill that Amman
GTo kill that Cman
DmThe judge he will command
And AmI’ll ride off to the lGand of no retCurn
[Verse]
CMy mother will be there, with her qEmuiet understanding
DmMy brothers will be there, with their juAmdging eyes of stone

This cDmhange his son who finally broke, and jusAmt reached out and had to choke

EThen I’ll lose all restriction as my spirit leaves this shell
