Tuning: Standard (Half step down is closer to the actual record, but the pitch on 
that is a bit off as it is)

Intro : D G D G

C                                Dm
The preacher talked to me and he smiled,
G                                      C
Said, "Come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile.
        C                        Dm
Now for once in your life you're alone,
         G                          A
but you ain't got a dime, there's no time for the phone."

D                                 Em       G    A      D
I've just got to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.
        D                         Em            G   A     D  
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.

I told him I'm in no hurry,
but if I broke her heart, won't you tell her I'm sorry.
And for once in my life I'm alone,
and I've got to let her know just in time before I go.

I've just go to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.

Well I laughed but that didn't hurt,
and it's only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt.
Now I'm crying but deep down inside,
well I did it to him, now it's my turn to die.

I've just got to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on

Key change at end:
          E                       F#m        A   B    E
I've just got to get a message to her, hold on, hold on.
          E                       F#m           A  B    E       
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on
