G F#
Verse
E I came through the fence in ‘93 Cadd9 G F# And I know that they are after me today E I believe this is the land for me Cadd9 G F# Of hope, and grace, and liberty E Oh, my grandfather, he told me Cadd9 G F# Son, you’ll never have to run anymore E Oh, but I broke the law Cadd9 G F# Which I will surely die for But, now
Chorus
Cadd9 I am on my way E I have to leave today, G D Tell my wife and boy that I love them Cadd9 E I gave my son to America G F# God, I pray they treat him well
Intro
E Well, my daddy left when I was five, Cadd9 G F# I do not know if he’s alive at all E And, it’s hard with just my mom and me Cadd9 G F# But I work to feed my family E And, I work hard to keep my bitter pay Cadd9 G F# That the rich man comes and takes away E So, I killed him in the dead of night Cadd9 G F# With my father’s gun E I took his life away Cadd9 G F# I took his life away Now, I say
Chorus
Cadd9 I was on my way E I have to leave today G D Tell my mom and sister that I love them Cadd9 E I am on the run From America G F# God, I pray they don’t catch me
Verse
E Now, I sit here in this dirty cell Cadd9 G F# The jailer comes to give me hell E They have caught me and my racist mind Cadd9 G F# I’ll surely pay for what I’ve done E But, then I look up and I see Cadd9 G F# This old man staring at me E He tells me I remind him of someone Cadd9 G F# His own boy he left at the age of 5 E That probably thought his daddy died Cadd9 G F# And, how he wished he could tell him
Outro
Cadd9 He would say E I was on my way, had to leave that day G D Tell my wife and boy that I love them Cadd9 I gave my love to America G Em D God I pray they treat him well, G Em D Oh, god I pray they treat well G Em D God, I pray they treat him well.
