(Em)Never woulda hitchhiked to Birmingham
If it hadn't been for love
Never woulda caught the train to Louisianne
If it (C)hadn't been for love
(Em)Never woulda run through the blindin' rain
With(C)out one dollar to my name
If it(C) hadn't been, if it(Am) hadn't been for (Em)love
(Em)I never woulda seen the trouble that I'm in
If it hadn't been for love
Woulda been gone like a wayward wind
If it (C)hadn't been for love
(Em)Nobody knows it better than me
I (C)wouldn't be wishin' I was free
If it (C)hadn't been, if it (Am))hadn't been for (Em)love
chorus
(G)Four cold (D)walls, (Am7)against my (G)will
At(G)least I (D)know she's (Am7)lyin' (Em)still
(G)Four cold (D)walls, with(Am)out pa(G)role
(G)Lord, have (D)mercy (Am)on my (Em)soul
G D Am G G D Am Em
(Em)Never woulda gone to that side of town
If it hadn't been for love
Never woulda took a mind to track her down
If it (C)hadn't been for love
(Em)Never woulda loaded up a forty four
(C)Put myself behind a jailhouse door
If it (C)hadn't been, if it (Am))hadn't been for (Em)love
If it (C)hadn't been, if it (Am)hadn't been for (Em)love
repeat chorus
(Em)Never woulda hitchhiked to Birmingham
If it hadn't been for love
Never would have caught the train to Louisianne
If it (C)hadn't been for love
(Em)I never woulda loaded up a forty four
(C)Put myself behind a jailhouse door
If it (C)hadn't been, if it (Am)hadn't been for (Em)love
If it (C)hadn't been, if it (Am)hadn't been for (Em)love
G D Am G G D Am Em (repeat about five times and fade)
