[Verse]G D Am
Mama, take this badge off of me
G D C
I can't use it anymore.
G D Am
It's gettin' dark, too dark to see
G D C
And I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door
[Chorus]G D Am
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
G D C
Knock, knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
G D Am
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
G D C
Just like so many times before
[Verse]G D Am
Mama, wipe the blood out of my face
G D C
I just can't see through it anymore
G D Am
Got a long black feeling and it's hard to trace
G D C
And I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door
[Chorus]G D Am
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
G D C
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
G D Am
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
G D C
Just like so many times before

[Verse]G D Am
Mama, put my guns into the ground
G D C
I just can't fire them anymore.
G D Am
That long black train is pullin' on down
G D C
And I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door
[Chorus]G D Am
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
G D C
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
G D Am
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
G D C
Just like so many times before
