VERSE 
Em            Bm          C                  Em 
My pulse says 23 beats an hour - that can’t be right  
Em                   Bm             C                    Em 
Maybe that’s why I’m falling asleep here at the traffic light  
Em              Bm                     C                             Em 
I can’t hear a word you say but I can see you from the corner of my eye 
Em                Bm                  C                 Em 
One hand out the window, Lord, and my brain’s up in the sky  

VERSE 
Em            Bm                   C            Em                   
When I awake my hands vibrate just like a banjo string  
Em                   Bm       C              Em 
Radio station coming in I can hear the choir sing  
Em                   Bm                   C             Em 
Some kind of song that sounds just like "When the Levee Breaks"  
Em                   Bm             C                    Em 
Bassoons and timpanis join in what a ruckus those things make  

 
G                   Am          
Lock the doors and hang on,   
F                                 G 
I think I hear the undertaker’s song 
G                   Am 
Lock the doors and hang on, 
F                         G                Em 
We’re going to reach the gates before too long
  

VERSE 
Em             Bm                  C           Em 
When I arose I was exposed to the fabled bright lights  
Em           Bm                  C                    Em 
All the harp players’ robes were pressed and clean and white  
Em                   Bm                  C              Em 
Plucking out a tune that I know now was "In My Time of Dying" 
Em                   Bm        C                  Em 
When they issued me my wings I set straight out flying  

 
G                   Am          
Lock the doors and hang on,   
F                                 G 
I think I hear the undertaker’s song 
G                   Am 
Lock the doors and hang on, 
F                         G                Em 
We’re going to reach the gates before too long

BRIDGE 
C                 Am            Em 
If my halo should ever lose its shine  
C                 Am          Em 
Help me to find a new one somewhere  
C                 Am          Em 
If my wings should fail me my Lord  
C                Am                  Em 
Please won’t you meet me with another pair? 
C Am Em
