Well, I wonder which song they're gonna play when we go.
Am Fmaj7
I hope it's something quiet and minor and peaceful and slow.
Am Em
When we float out into the ether, into the Everlasting Arms,
Am Fmaj7
I hope we don't hear Marley's chains we forged in life.
Am F C G
'Cause the chains I been hearing now for most of my life,
Am F C G

Did you hear the '59 Sound coming through on grandmother's radio?
Am G Fmaj7
Did you hear the rattling chains.... in the hospital walls?
C Fmaj7
Did you hear the old gospel choir when they came to carry you over?
Am G Fmaj7
Did you hear your favorite song one last time?
Am Em
And I wonder were you scared when the metal hit the glass?
Am Fmaj7
See, I was playing a show down the road when your spirit left your body.
Am Em
And they told me on the front lawn. I'm sorry I couldn't go,
Am Fmaj7
But I still know the song and the words and her name and the reasons.

Seeing as almost all of Gaslight's songs from this album are in D tuning, I
was pretty sure I could make it work for this song too. I took a look at a
few live videos, and this is definitely what he's playing, especially in the
intro. Hope you all enjoy it!
