Undertakers Song

Capo 2 INTRO Em Bm C Em Em Bm C Em VERSE Em Bm C Em My pulse says 23 beats an hour - that can’t be right Em Bm C Em Maybe that’s why I’m falling asleep here at the traffic light Em Bm C Em I can’t hear a word you say but I can see you from the corner of my eye Em Bm C Em One hand out the window, Lord, and my brain’s up in the sky VERSE Em Bm C Em When I awake my hands vibrate just like a banjo string Em Bm C Em Radio station coming in I can hear the choir sing Em Bm C Em Some kind of song that sounds just like "When the Levee Breaks" Em Bm C Em Bassoons and timpanis join in what a ruckus those things make [Refrão] G Am Lock the doors and hang on, F G I think I hear the undertaker’s song G Am Lock the doors and hang on, F G Em We’re going to reach the gates before too long VERSE Em Bm C Em When I arose I was exposed to the fabled bright lights Em Bm C Em All the harp players’ robes were pressed and clean and white Em Bm C Em Plucking out a tune that I know now was "In My Time of Dying" Em Bm C Em When they issued me my wings I set straight out flying [Refrão] G Am Lock the doors and hang on, F G I think I hear the undertaker’s song G Am Lock the doors and hang on, F G Em We’re going to reach the gates before too long SOLO: Em Bm C Em x4 BRIDGE C Am Em If my halo should ever lose its shine C Am Em Help me to find a new one somewhere C Am Em If my wings should fail me my Lord C Am Em Please won’t you meet me with another pair? C Am Em G Am Lock the doors and hang on, F G I think I hear the undertaker’s song G Am Lock the doors and hang on, F G Em We’re going to reach the gates before too long F G Em I think I hear the undertaker’s song F G Em Yeah, I think I hear the undertaker’s song C Em C Em C Bm Em
