[Intro]
F C F G Am C G C
[Verse 1]
C
Way down in Columbus, Georgia
G7 C
Way down south of sunny Tennesee
No one to hear or comfort
G7 C
No one to give a damn for me
[Chorus]
F C
Go away and leave me if you want to
F G7
I never let you cross my mind
Am C
If in your heart you love another
G7 C
Then go and leave me, darling, I don't mind
[Verse 2]
C
I am shackled down here in Columbus Stockade
G7 C
The chains of my legs are making sores
I am laid in the mud in Columbus Stockade
G7 C
The jailer man ain't comin' to my door
[Chorus]
F C
Go away and leave me if you want to
F G7
I never let you cross my mind
Am C
If in your heart you love another
G7 C
Then go and leave me, darling, I don't mind
[Verse 3]
C
Last night, while I lay sleeping
