[Gb] [Abm]
[Abm]
[Gb] [Ab] Oh, I had surgery, and with a black book in my hand, I had luck between Elijah and I on a page instead of sitting down next to a walking Jew religious in his worn out cowboy boots.
He walked like no man [Gb] on earth, that's the way he had no name.
I swear to
[Abm] God, come on [Gb] and meet [Eb] your maker, [Gb] come on [Ebm] down, [E] make [Gb] the stand.
[E] Come [Gb] on down, come [Ebm] on down, [E] come on down, and make [Abm] the stand.
[Ab] [Abm]
[Gb] [Bb] I [Abm] sat cold beneath the searchlights, looking through the bubble that they slide.
I met Dr.
Strange, loves me more than my half time.
Hey, trash can, where you going boy?
Your eyes are feet apart.
Is that the end of your [Gb] carriage?
I played a funeral march.
Crazy in my heart, come on down, meet your [Bbm] maker, come on down, [E] [Gb] make the stand.
[E] Come [Gb] on down, come [Ebm] on down, [E] come on down, and [Ab]
make [Abm] the [Ab] stand.
[Ab]
[B] [Ab]
Come on down, meet [Abm] your maker, [Ebm]
[E] [Gb] [E] come
[Gb] [Ebm] on down, come on [E] down,
[Abm] [Gb]
[Ab] [Abm]
[Gb] [Abm] come on down, and make the stand.
When I looked out the window, [Ab] the hardship that I'd [Abm] spoke, I saw the seven files open, the plate, the [Bb] man and the book,
[Abm] the man in the grave, in silence, had fell down in grace, a simple wooden cross, it had [Gb] no less happened, but it had not.
[Ab]
[Abm] [Bb] [Gb] Come on down, meet [Bbm] your maker, come on down,
[E] [Gb] make the stand.
[E]
[Gb] Come on down,
[Abm] [Gb] meet [Bbm] your maker,
[E] [Gb] come on down, [E] come
[Gb] on [Ebm] down, come on [E] down, [Gb]
[Ab] [Gb] and meet your maker, [Bbm]
[E] [Gb] [E] come on [Gb] down, come on [Ebm] down.
