_ _ _ My body's _
[A] aching [B] from laying in this bed _ I went singing in [E] the rain and [B] the cold got
to my [E] head _ _ I don't know who's [A] paying I just know what the doctor said _ _ 84 _ years of a sin
in life and in the morning I'll be _ dead [C#m] _ _
_ [B] I _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ have _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
[E] _ _ _ three [A] daughters, [E] a new man for everyone _ _
and the only man _ _ _ _ left me with my only son [A] _ [E] I was a no good mother, [A] _ _ [E] I was a no good wife
_ _ there's only one thing that I did right in this god forsaken life
_ so [C#m] Saint Peter, _ [B] won't you open up the big [A] white _ gate
_ _ [C#m] cause I heard about forgiveness [B] and I hope it ain't [A] too _ late
_ _ _ no [C#m] I _ _
[B] _ _ _ ain't [A] no sugar [F#m] pill you're king that [D] all the folks up in heaven [A] might like to hear [E] me sing
_ _ [A] _ _ [E] _ I _ _ _ _ _ _ _
sang to my children _ before they strayed so far
_ I _ sang for my love, [A] _ [E] a nickel and a tip jar
[A] _ _ [E] _ _
I never knew Jesus, _ _ I never read the good book
[A] _ [E] but on my day of [A] dying [E] I'm giving life a second look
oh [C#m] Saint Peter, _ [B] won't you open up the big [A] white gate
_ _ _ [C#m] cause I heard about forgiveness [B] and I hope it ain't [A] too _ _ late
_ _ [C#m]
no I ain't no [B] holy roller, _ [A] but you go tell [F#m] your king
that [D] all the folks up in heaven [A] might like to [E] hear me sing
[A] yes they [E] would _ _ _ _ _ _ _

[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
it's _ _ come a long time now _ and my body's getting cold
I got no will, I got no prayer, [B] my story's all been told _
[A] _ _ [E] ready for an end of [A] fire, I'd [E] love to see that end of [A] gold
_ [E] some noise bring me my [A] guitar, [E] one love song before I go
oh [C#m] Saint Peter, [E] won't you open up the [A] big white _ gate _
cause [C#m] I heard about [B] forgiveness and I hope it [A] ain't too _ _ late _
no [C#m] I ain't no [B] holy roller, _ [A] but you go tell [F#m] your king
that [D] all the folks up in heaven [A] might like to hear [E] me _ _ sing
all [D] the folks up in heaven [A] might like to hear [E] me _ _ _ _ _
