Intro: G, A, F#m, G, G, A, D 

             G 
Blue Mountain Penitentiary 
             A 
Been housing sin for centuries 
  F#m                           G 
I am just a number, not a name 
                G 
And you wear a gun and hold the keys 
      A 
But you've always been good to me 
      F#m                               G 
Only see the man and not the shame 
             G 
And I haven't seen my wife in years 
       A 
Last memory is her in tears 
   F#m                                 G 
Wonder if she'll even come tonight 
                 G 
There's something that she doesn't know 
          A                            
She needs to hear before I go 
F#m                              G 
Could you tell her I'm alright 


         G                     A 
Would you pray with me 
F#m                          G 
Touch the hand of a sinner 
        G                      A 
Would you stay with me 
F#m                           G 
And be my guest for dinner 


G A F#m G G A D 

           G                              
Looks like this is my dyin' day 
          A 
They tell me that's the only way 
      F#m                           G 
I'll ever see the other side again 
         G 
But they don't know who's been in here 
        A 
Every day the last three years 
     F#m                                   G 
Yes, sir, I'm the one who let Him in 
               G 
And He comes and sits down in my chair 
     A 
Weeping, breathing this same air 
F#m                      G 
And opens up His hands 
            G 
Reminds me that He walked this mile 
     A 
Suffered for a little while 
F#m                                   G 
And made me an innocent man 


         G                     A 
Would you pray with me 
F#m                          G 
Touch the hand of a sinner 
        G                      A 
Would you stay with me 
F#m                           G 
And be my guest for dinner 

 
         G                     A 
Would you pray with me 
F#m                          G 
Touch the hand of a sinner 
        G                      A 
Would you stay with me 
F#m                           G 
And be my guest for dinner
