The Angel Of Death Lyrics

    Words and music by hank williams, sr.

    Capo: 2nd fret key: e play: d
    In the [d] great book of john - you're [g] warned of the [d] day
    When you'll be laid - beneath the cold [a7] clay
    The [g] angel of [d] death - will [g] come from the [d] sky
    And claim your poor soul - when the [a7] time comes to [d] die.

    Chorus
    When the angel of death - comes [g] down after [d] you
    Can you smile and say - that you have been [a7] true
    Can you [g] truthfully [d] say - with [g] your dying [d] breath
    That you're ready to meet - the [a7] angel of [d] death.

    When the [d] lights all grow dim - and the [g] dark shadows [d] creep
    And then your loved ones - are gathered to [a7] weep
    Can you [g] face them and [d] say - with [g] your dying [d] breath
    That you're ready to meet - the [a7] angel of [d] death.

    Chorus
