Em D
They're taking me down my friend
Em D
and as they usher me off to my end
A G
will I bid you adieu?
A G
Or be seeing you soon?
Em
If what they say round here is true
D
then we'll meet again
A
me and you.
Em D
My time is at hand, my dove
Em D
They're gunna pass me to that house above
A G
Is Heaven just for victims, dear?
A G
Where only those in pain go?
Em
Well it takes two to tango
D
We will meet again, my love
A
I know
Em D
If you're in Heaven then you'll forgive me, dear
Em D
Because that's what they do up there
A G
If you're in Hell, then what can I say
A G
You probably deserved in anyway
Em
I guess I'm gunna find out any day
D
For we'll meet again
A
And there'll be Hell to pay
Em D
Your face comes to me from the depths, dear
Em D
Your silent mouth mouths, 'Yes", dear
A G
Dark red and big with blood
A G
They're gunna shut me down, my love
Em
They're gunna launch me into the stars
D
Well, all things come to pass
A
Glory hallelujah
Em D
This prayer is for you, my love
Em D
Sent on the wings of a dove
A G
An idiot prayer of empty words
A G
Love, dear, is strictly for the birds
Em
We each get what we deserve
D
My little snow white dove
A
