 Intro: C    F   Fsus4  F   (2X)

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


Chorus:
	           C                     Dm
	I've just gotta get a message to you
	     F    G       C
	Hold on,     hold on
	          C                         Dm
	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


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


**Chorus


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


**Chorus


Coda:
	 (A)       D                     Em
	I've just gotta get a message to her
	     G    A       D
	Hold on,     hold on
	          D                         Em
	One more hour and my life will be through
	     G    A       D
	Hold on,     hold on  (Fade)
