[Verse 1]
D..Just last week I went to prison
GTo see some boys down on death row
ABrought some guitars and my buddies
G DTo play some songs I thought they’d know
I could feel myself trembling
GWhen I shook one of their hands
AI thought that he would be a monster
G DTurns out he’s a whole lot like I am
[Chorus]
GYeah, we talked hunting, we talked fishing
DLike I Do with boys back home
BmHow Jesus is the ticket
AAnd narrow is the road
GAbout how all we need is forgiveness
D Bm‘Fore we see them streets of gold
D A DYeah, I learned a lot ’bout livin’ from them boys down on death row
[Verse 2]
D…One of ’em name’s was Johnny
GAin’t touched the grass in thirty years
AMaybe I ain’t supposed to feel sorry no
G DBut it ’bout brought me to tears
Then it hit me, we’re all human
GAin’t always proud of what we done
AEverybody’s days are numbered
G DOnly difference is, they all know which ones
[Chorus]
GYeah, we talked hunting, we talked fishing
DLike I Do with boys back home
BmHow Jesus is the ticket
AAnd narrow is the road
GAbout how all we need is forgiveness
D Bm‘Fore we see them streets of gold
D A DYeah, I learned a lot ’bout livin’ from them boys down on death row

[Verse 3]
D…One of ’em sang, “Amazing Grace”, how sweet the sound
With one hand raised and one foot chained to the ground
G DYeah, he sang it like he knew he’d just been found
G A DYeah that next week, they laid him six feet down
[Instrumental]
G D Bm A……………..
[Chorus]
G D BmI can’t say that he’s in Heaven, who Am I to judge his soul?
D A BmBut Jesus don’t play favorites, sayin’ a name that He don’t know
D A DYeah I learned that and then some, with them boys down on death row
[Outro]
D A DI learned all that and then some, from the boys down on death row
