Cm G7 B Cm Bb Fm Ab
Have you heard the dogs at night somewhere on the hill?
Cm G Cm G G B Eb Bb G B
Chasing some poor criminal & I guess they're out to kill.
Cm G7 B Eb Bb Fm Ab
Oh there must be shackles on his feet and mother in his eyes.
Cm G Cm G D G D G F D B
Stumbling thru devil dark with the hound pack in full cry.
Chorus< b>: Ab C Eb F Bb D F G Cm
Have mercy on the criminal who is running from the law.
Ab C Eb F Bb D F G Cm
Are you blind to the wind of change? Don't you hear him anymore?

Praying Lord you gotta help me. I am never gonna sin again
Cm Cm Bb Ab7 G7 Cm G7
Just take these chains from round my legs. Sweet Jesus I'll be your friend.
Cm G7 B
Now have you ever seen the white teeth gleam
Cm Bb Fm Ab
while you lie on a cold damp ground?
Cm G
You're taking in the face of a rifle butt
Cm G G B Eb Bb G B
while the wardens hold you down.
Cm G7 B Eb Bb Fm Ab
And you've never seen a friend in years. Oh, it turns your heart to stone.
Cm G
You jump the walls and the dogs run free,
Cm G D G D G F D B
and the grave's gonna be your home.
{Repeat Chorus< b>}
