[Intro]
C Fmaj7 Am G Fmaj7
(During half of the last G and Fmaj7 the 3rd fret on the e string is held)
[Verse]
Am E
Well I wonder which song they're gonna play when we go
Am F
I hope it's something quiet and minor and peaceful and slow
Am E
And as we float out into the ether into the everlasting arms
Am F
I hope we don't hear Marley's chains we forged in life
Am Fmaj7 C G
'Cause these chains I've been hearin' now for most of my life
Am Fmaj7 C G
And these chains I've been hearin' now for most of my life
[Chorus]
C
Did you hear the '59 sound
Fmaj7
Coming through on Grandmama's radio?
Am G
Did you hear the rattlin' chains
Fmaj7
In the hospital walls?
C
Did you hear the old gospel choir
Fmaj7
When they came to carry you over?
Am G
And did you hear your favorite song
Fmaj7
One last time?
[Verse]
Am E
And I wonder, were you scared when the metal hit the glass?
Am F
Well I was playing a show down the road when your spirit left your body
Am E
And they told me when I was on the front lawn, and I'm sorry that I couldn't go
Am F
But I still know the song and the words and her name and every reason
Am Fmaj7 C G
And I know 'cause we were kids and we used to hang
Am Fmaj7 C G
And I know 'cause we were kids and we used to hang
[Chorus]
