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
 
Chorus:
         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
 
Chorus 2:
         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
 
Chorus 3:
         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
