"I've Gotta Get A Message To You" (Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb)
Intro:
Verse 1:
The preacher talked with me and he smiled
Said to come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile
Now for once in your life you're alone
But you ain't got a dime
There's no time for the phone
Chorus:
I've just gotta get a message to you
Hold on, hold on
One more hour and my life will be through F G C [1, 2: F, to verse 3: A, to coda] Hold on, hold on
Verse 2:
I told him I'm in no hurry But if I broke her heart, then won't you tell her I'm sorry And for once in my life I'm alone And I gotta let her know Just in time before I go
[repeat chorus]
Verse 3:
Well, I laughed but that didn't hurt And it's only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt Now I'm crying, but deep down inside Well, I did it to him Now it's my turn to die
