Send A Picture Of Mother Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

[VERSE 1]
N.C.
After sev[A]en years be[E]hind these bars to[A]gether
I'll miss you more than a [E]brother when you [A]go when you[A7] go
If [D]only I had not tried to es[A]cape
They'd[B7] barred me with you I [E]know yes I[E7] know
Won't you [A]tell the folks back [E]home I'll soon be [A]coming
And don't let them [E]know I never will be [A]free be [A7]free
[D]Sometimes write and tell me how they're [A]doing
And send a [E]picture of mother back to [A]me

[CHORUS]
[D]Say hello to Dad and shake his [A]poor hardworking hand
[E]And send a picture of mother if you [A]can

[VERSE 2]
I'm [A]happy for [E]you that you got your [A]freedom
But [A]stay with me [E]just another minute or [A]so or [A7]so
[D]After all this sweating blood to[A]gether
Who'll [B7]be my fighting partner when you [E]go when you [E7]go
The har[A]dest time will [E]be on Sunday [A]morning
Church bells will [E]ring on Heaven [A]Hill Heaven [A7]Hill
[D]Please ask Reverend Garrett to pray [A]for me
And send a [E]picture of mother if you [A]will

[CHORUS]
[D]Say hello to Dad and shake his [A]poor hardworking hand
[E]And send a picture of mother if you [A]can
