25 Minutes To Go

by Johnny Cash

G

Well, they're buildin the gallows outside my cell and I've got 25

D

minutes to go. And the whole town's waitin just to hear me yell, I've got 24

G

minutes to go. Well, they gave me some beans for my last meal with 23 minutes

D G

to go, but nobody asked me how I feel, I've got 22 minutes to go. Well, I

D

sent for the governor and the whole darn bunch with 21 minutes to go, and I

G

called up the mayor but he's out to lunch, I got 20 more minutes to go.

D

Then the sheriff said boy, I'm gonna watch you die with 19 minutes to go, so

G E

I laughed in his face and I spit in his eye with 18 minutes to go. Now here

B

comes the preacher for to save my soul with 13 minutes to go, and he's talkin

E

bout burnin but I'm so cold, 12 more minutes to go. Well, they're testin the

B

trap and it chills my spine, 11 more minutes go, and the trap and the rope,

E

they work just fine, 10 more minutes to go. Well, I'm waitin for the pardon

B

that'll set me free with 9 more minutes to go, but this ain't the movies, so

E G

forget about me, 8 more minutes to go. With my feet on the trap and my head

D

in the noose, 5 more minutes to go. Won't somebody come and cut me loose? 4

G

more minutes to go. I can see the mountain I can see the sky, 3 more minutes

D G

to go, and it's too darn pretty for a man to die, 2 more minutes to go. I can

D

see the buzzards, I can hear the crows, 1 more minute to go, and now I'm

swingin and here I goooooooooo...
