Tabbed by: Country Bass
E-mail: aaron.white8@education.nsw.gov.au
Tuning: Standard
The Actual song is played with capo on the 8th fret,
but to play it easier I put my capo on the 4th fret,
but either way the chords are the same
Capo 4th
G C x2
G C
These four walls of Farnworth
G C
Are closin' in on me
G C
My final meal's over
G C
They're gonna set me free
C G
I can feel the fire's a burnin'
C G
As the devil guards my door
C Am
I hit my knees in search of Jesus
C D G
On a cold jailhouse floor
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/e/eric_church/lightning_crd_ver_2.html ]
G C
Lord, now I'm singin'
G C
"Get me out of here"
C
I see the preacher's eyes
G
As my daughter cries
Am D
When they strap me in this chair
G C
Lord, I hope she forgives me
G C
For livin' my life this way
G
Tonight I ride the lightning
D G C
To my final judgment day
G C
Every life owes a death
G C
That's what the Bible says
G C
I owe mine to this state
G C
For shootin' that boy to death
C G
A liquor store attendant
C G
He was reachin' for his gun
C Am
Now his Momma sits there smilin'
C D G
As the boss yells "Roll on one
Chorus
G C
A hungry blue eyed baby cryin'
G C
Made me rob that store
G C
An' as that boy lay there dyin'
G C
I dropped my pistol on the floor
C
Yeah, I'd take it all back
G
but there's nothin' I can do
Am
They've covered my face
G
An' the order's gone through
C D G
As the boss yells "Roll on, two"
Chorus
G C
These four walls of Farnworth
G C
Are closin' in on me
