Oh Death-Dock Boggs chords
Start Jamming...
What is this that I can't see with eyes that can't [C#] hold on me?
I am death and none can excel, I'll open [C#m] doors to heaven [C#] or hell.
Oh, death, oh, [A#m] death, can't you [G#] spare me over till another [C#] year?
Oh, death, [A#m] oh, death, please spare me over [C#] till another year.
Oh, death, someone would pray, couldn't you call some other day?
God's children pray, the preachers preach, time mercies out of your reach.
I'll fix your feet so you can't walk, I'll lock your jaw [G#m] so you can't talk.
Close your eyes so you can't see this very error, come go with [C#] me.
Death, I come to take the soul, leave the body and leave it cold.
To drop the flesh off of the frame, the earth and the world both have a claim.
Oh, death, oh, death, can't you spare me over till another year?
Oh, death, oh, [G] death, please spare me over till another year.
Mother, come to my bed, place a cold towel upon my head.
My head is warm, my feet is cold, death is moving up on my soul.
Oh, death, how you're treating me, you've closed [E] my eyes so I [C#] can't see.
You're hurting my body, you make me cold, you rule my life right out of my soul.
Oh, death, oh, death, can't you spare me over till another year?
Oh, death, [A#m] oh, death, please spare me over [C#m] till another [C#] year.
Oh, death, please, at my age, please don't take me at this stage.
My wealth is at your command, if you will move your wispy hand.
Oh, the young, the rich, your pearl, all alike with me you know.
No wealth, no land, no silver, no gold, nothing can satisfy me but your soul.
Oh, death, oh, death, can't you spare me over till another year?
Oh, death, [A#m] oh, death, please spare me over till [C#] another year.
