Verse:
Am
Never woulda hitch hiked to Birmingham... if it hadn't been for love
                                                      F
Never woulda caught the train to Louisian'... if it hadn't been for love
Am
Never woulda run through the blindin' rain
F
without one dollar to my name
F                           E              Am
if it hadn't been... if it hadn't been for love


Am
Never woulda seen the trouble that i'm in... if it hadn't been for love
                                                      F
Woulda been gone like a wayward wind... if it hadn't been for love
Am
Nobody knows it better than me
F
I wouldn't be wishing I was free
F                           E              Am
if it hadn't been... if it hadn't been for love

Chorus:
C           G    Dm        C
Four cold walls against my will
C            G         Dm    Am
at least I know she's lying still
C           G     Dm      C
Four cold walls without parole
C           G   Dm     Am
Lord have mercy on my soul

Verse:
Am
Never woulda gone to that side of town... if it hadn't been for love
                                                      F
Never woulda took a mind to track her down... if it hadn't been for love
Am
Never woulda loaded up a forty four
F
put myself behind a jail house door
F                           E              Am
if it hadn't been... if it hadn't been for love

Chorus:
C           G   Dm      C
Four cold walls against my will
C            G         Dm    Am
at least I know she's lying still
C           G    Dm     C
Four cold walls without parole
C           G   Dm     Am
Lord have mercy on my soul

Never woulda caught the train to Louisian'... if it hadn't been for love .
Am
Never woulda loaded up a forty four
F
put myself behind a jail house door
F                           E              Am
if it hadn't been... if it hadn't been for love

if it hadn't been... if it hadn't been for love

if it hadn't been... if it hadn't been for love
