Words and music by hank williams, sr.<br><br>Capo: 2nd fret key: e play: d<br>In the [d] great book of john - you're [g] warned of the [d] day<br>When you'll be laid - beneath the cold [a7] clay<br>The [g] angel of [d] death - will [g] come from the [d] sky<br>And claim your poor soul - when the [a7] time comes to [d] die.<br><br>Chorus<br>When the angel of death - comes [g] down after [d] you<br>Can you smile and say - that you have been [a7] true<br>Can you [g] truthfully [d] say - with [g] your dying [d] breath<br>That you're ready to meet - the [a7] angel of [d] death.<br><br>When the [d] lights all grow dim - and the [g] dark shadows [d] creep<br>And then your loved ones - are gathered to [a7] weep<br>Can you [g] face them and [d] say - with [g] your dying [d] breath<br>That you're ready to meet - the [a7] angel of [d] death.<br><br>Chorus
