Verse 1:

	                                   
	The preacher talked with me and he smiled
	                                        
	Said to come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile
	        ()                       
	Now for once in your life you're alone
	         
	But you ain't got a dime
	            
	There's no time for the phone

Chorus:

	                                
	I've just gotta get a message to you
	                
	Hold on,     hold on
	                                   
	One more hour and my life will be through
	     F    G       C     [1, 2: F, to verse  3: A, to coda]
	Hold on,     hold on

Verse 2:

	I told him I'm in no hurry
	But if I broke her heart, then won't you tell her I'm sorry
	And for once in my life I'm alone
	And I gotta let her know
	Just in time before I go

[repeat chorus]

Verse 3:

	Well, I laughed but that didn't hurt
	And it's only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt
	Now I'm crying, but deep down inside
	Well, I did it to him
	Now it's my turn to die

[repeat chorus]

Coda [key changes to D]:

	 ()                            
	I've just gotta get a message to her
	                
	Hold on,     hold on
	                                   
	One more hour and my life will be through
	                
	Hold on,     hold on [fade]
