Killed a Man

  Dm                        C               Dm
I killed a man last night, gave him what he deserved
 Dm                          C            Dm
Dug a midnight grave, and I put him in that dirt
    Dm                   C                   Dm
I woke up this morning, my conscience fully clear
  Dm                   C                  Dm
Felt closer to Jesus than I ever had in years

           F
He can't hurt the ones I love
           C
He can't break no angel's heart
          Gm                         Bb
He can't take that whiskey bottle and tear my world apart
           F
He can't stand there in the mirror
           C
He can't tell me no more lies
           Gm              Bb              Dm
Yeah, I killed a man, I killed a man last night

      Dm                          C            Dm
Lord knows he had it comin', his sins were adding up
      Dm                              C           Dm
But when he drove that girl away, I finally had enough
     Dm                           C               Dm
I coulda pled the fifth, but I poured it down the drain
  Dm                              C             Dm
Said that sinner's prayer, and I sent him on his way

         F
Now he can't hurt the ones I love
           C
He can't break no angel's heart
          Gm                           Bb
He can't take that whiskey bottle and tear my world apart
           F
He can't stand there in the mirror
           C
He can't tell me no more lies

                         Gm   C
Wish it didn't take this long
      C
But now he's finally gone

 Gm7          F
Now he can't hurt the ones I love
            C
He can't break no angel's heart
           Gm                          Bb
He can't take that whiskey bottle and tear my world apart
           F
He can't stand there in the mirror
           C
He can't tell me no more lies
   Gm                    F
He's gone for good this time
     Bb             C               Dm
