Hank Williams - The Angel Of Death guitar chord

THE ANGEL OF DEATH

by Hank Williams

CAPO at the 2nd FRET

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.

Rpt CHORUS
