I've Got A Message To You

[C][F] – [C][F]

 1.The [Bb] preacher talked with me and he [Cm] smiled 

 Said [F] "come and walk with me 

 Come and [Bb] walk one more mile" 

 Now for once in your life you're [Cm] alone 

 But you [F] ain't got a dime 

 There's no [G] time for the phone

 

 Chorus: 

 I've just [C] gotta get a message to [Dm] you 

 Hold [F] on, [G] hold [C] on 

 One more [C] hour and my life will be [Dm] through 

 Hold [F] on, [G] hold [C] on [F]

 

 2. I told [Bb] him "I'm in no [Cm] hurry”

 But if [F] I broke her heart 

 Then won't you [Bb] tell her I'm sorry" 

 And for once in my life I'm [Cm] alone 

 And i've [F] gotta let her know 

 Just in [G] time before I go

 

 3. Well I [Bb] laughed but that didn't [Cm] hurt

 And it's [F] only her love 

 That keeps me [Bb] wearing this dirt 

 Now I'm crying but deep down [Cm] inside 

 Well I [F] did it to him 

 Now it's [G] my turn to die

 

 --------- Chorus # 1 tone up

 

 [A] I've just [D] gotta get a message to [Em] you 

 Hold [G] on, [A] hold [D] on 

 One more [D] hour and my life will be [Em] through 

 Hold [G] on, [A] hold [D] on
