The Kneeling Drunkard's Plea

Johnny Cash

Ton : CEnglish
102 bpm
LCord have mG7ercy on me
Was the kneeling dFrunkard's pClea
And as he knelt there oFn the ground
I kCnow that God in HG7eaven looked dCown
I went down by an oG7ld country church
I saw the drunkard sFtagger and lCurch
And as he reached his mFother's grave
I sCaw that drunkard kG7neel and pCray
LCord have mG7ercy on me
Was the kneeling dFrunkard's pClea
And as he knelt there oFn the ground
I kCnow that God in HG7eaven looked dCown
C F C G7 C 
Bring my darling bG7oy to me
Was his mothers dFying pClea
And as he staggered Fthrough the gate
Alas hCe came just one dG7ay too lCateC 
Three years have passed sG7ince she went away
Her son is sleeping bFeside her tCoday
And I know that in heaven his Fmother will see
For GCod has heard that dG7runkard's pClea
LCord have mG7ercy on me
Was the kneeling dFrunkard's pClea
And as he knelt there oFn the ground
I kCnow that God in HG7eaven looked dCown
