[Intro 1]
[Am][F][G][C]
[Dm][Am][Dm][Em]

[Verse 1]
The [Am]young man [F]stands
on the [G]edge of his [C]porch
The [Dm]days were [Am]short and the [Dm]father was [Em]gone
There was [Am]no one in the to[F]wn
and [G]no one in the [C]field
This [Dm]dusty barren [Am]land
had given [Dm]all it could y[Em]ield
[Am][F][G][C]
[Dm][Am][Dm][Em]

[Verse 2]
I've been [Am]kicked off my [F]land
at the [G]age of six[C]teen
And [Dm]I have no id[Am]ea
where else [Dm]my heart could have b[Em]een
I [Am]placed all my [F]trust at the [G]foot of this [C]hill
And [Dm]now I am s[Am]ure
my heart can [Dm]never be [Em]still
So col[Am]lect your [F]courage
and col[G]lect your [C]horse
And [Dm]pray you never [Am]feel
this same [Dm]kind of re[Em]morse

[Dm][Am][Dm][Em]
[Am][F][G][C]
[Dm][Am][Dm][Em]

[Chorus 1]
[Am]Seal my [F]heart and [G]break my [C]pride
I've [Dm]nowhere to [Am]stand
and now, [Dm]nowhere to [Em]hide
A[Am]lign my [F]heart, my [G]body, my [C]mind
To [Dm]face what I've [Am]done and [Dm]do my t[Em]ime

[Verse 3]
Well [Am]you are my ac[F]cuser, now l[G]ook at my [C]face
[Dm]Your oppression [Am]reeks
of your [Dm]greed and dis[Em]grace
So [Am]one man h[F]as and a[G]nother has n[C]ot
[Dm]How can you [Am]love what it i[Dm]s you have go[Em]t
When you [Am]took it all [F]from the weak
[G]hands of the [C]poor?
[Dm]Liars and [Am]thieves,
you know not [Dm]what is in [Em]store

[Verse 4]
[Am]There will come a [F]time I will [G]look in your [C]eye
You will [Dm]pray to the [Am]God
that you [Dm]always de[Em]nied
Then [Am]I'll go out [F]back and I'll [G]get my [C]gun
I'll say, "You [Dm]haven't met [Am]me,
I am the [Dm]only [Em]son"
[Am][F][G][C]
[Dm][Am][Dm][Em]

[Chorus 2]
[Am]Seal my [F]heart and [G]break my [C]pride
I've [Dm]nowhere to [Am]stand
and now, [Dm]nowhere to [Em]hide
A[Am]lign my [F]heart, my [G]body, my [C]mind
To [Dm]face what I've [Am]done and [Dm]do my t[Em]ime

[Chorus 3]
[Am]Seal my heart and break my pride
I've nowhere to stand
and now, nowhere to hide
A[Am]lign my heart, my body, my mind

[Outro 1]
Well, [Am]yes sir, y[F]es sir, [G]yes it was m[C]e
I [Dm]know what I've [Am]done,
'cause I [Dm]know what I've [Em]seen
[Am]I went out bac[F]k and I go[G]t my gun[C]
I said, "You [Dm]haven't met [Am]me,
I am the [Dm]only [Em]son"
