The Crime I Didn't Do by Lonesome River Band





            The Crime I Didn't Do 






Am                G                                   Am
I was raised in a small mill town, a factory worker's son
Am               G                    D
Left my home and family at the age of 21
 
Am            G                                   Am
I set out to find my way in a strange and distant town
Am                   G                 D
Hadn't been there a year or more when trouble came around
 
Am            G                             Am
I operate an old punch press, work all by myself
Am                                 G               D
I make no friends or enemies, just parts from 4 to 12;
      Am        G    Am
just parts from 4 to 12
 
Am                                 G              Am
One night as I was walking home, I heard an awful sound
Am                                    G                 D
Footsteps running out of sight by the time I turned around
 
Am                                G           Am
Shaken by the dreadful scene, it came into my sight
Am                                    G                    D
A young man lying cold and still, beneath the dim street light
 
Am                                     G                Am
Dear Mother, say a prayer for me, and please try not to cry
Am                                    G         D
I swear to you I killed no one, but I had no alibi;
        Am     G  Am
Lord, I had no alibi
 
Am                          G              Am
Now I'm a hunted fugitive, running for my life
Am                                      G               D
A wanted man ain't got a chance when he has no place to hide
 
Am                                    G                   Am
I know someday they'll find me, and I know that when they do
Am                                  G             D
I'll have to pay the penalty for a crime I didn't do;
      Am        G    Am
For a crime I didn't do
