Hancock County Salvation

Words and Music By: Jarrett Bellini

[Am] Prison walls don’t get [C] too cold in June
And by the [G] way things are going will be [Am] out of here soon, brother
[Am] Don’t be scared, don’t [C] let ‘em get you [G] down
[Am] Hancock County isn’t [C] where this ends
The [G] jailor’s alright, you might [Am] call him a friend, brother
[Am] Don’t be scared, you know [C] they can’t get us from the [G] ground

“Oh, but they’ll [Em] try.”
Let ‘em [Am] try – Brother, [C] God’s on our [F] side
[C] What about Emma?”
She’s [G] gonna fine
Now, [Am] stand by the door, [C] John’s going to give you a [G] hand

The [Am] Marshall followed orders - he [C] did what I said
[G] All they ever wanted was to [Am] see me dead, brother
[Am] I hear ‘em too, don’t [C] let ‘em get through the [G] door
[Am] Watch yourself, Willard, you’re just [C] steppin’ in the way
Be- [G] sides I’ve got a feeling that you’ll [Am] be OK, brother
[Am] I hear ‘em too, don’t [C] let ‘em get through the [G] door

“They’re firing [Em] high!”
Let ‘em [Am] ride – Brother, [C] God’s on our [F] side
[C] This is where it ends.”
Well, it [G] look’s like you right.
I’ll [Am] see you in heaven, ‘cause sal- [C] vation’s just a window a- [G] way

[F] Kill Joseph the [C] con man!
[F] Kill him - he can’t [C] see the light!
[F] Kill Joseph the [C] con man!
[F] Kill him - he can’t [Am] see the light!
