[Verse]
Am
I never would have hitchhiked to Birmingham
If it hadn't been for love
Am
I never would have caught the train to Louisiana
F
If it hadn't been for love
Am
Never would have run through the blinding rain
F
Without one dollar to my name
F E Am (Riff)
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
[Verse]
Am
I never would have seen the trouble that I'm in
If it hadn't been for love
Am
I would have been gone like a wayward wind
F
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 (Walk up to C)
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
[Chorus]
C G Dm Am
Four cold walls against my will
C G Dm Am
At least I know he's lying still
C G Dm Am
Four cold walls without parole
C G Dm Am
Lord have mercy on my soul

[Verse]
Am
Never would have gone to that side of town
If it hadn't been for love
Am
Never would have took a mind to track him down
F
If it hadn't been for love
Am
I never would have loaded up a .44
F
Put myself behind a jail house door
F E Am (Riff)
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
[Chorus]
C G Dm Am
Four cold walls against my will
C G Dm Am
At least I know he's lying still

Four cold walls without parole

If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
(slow) F E Am
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
