Words and music by hank williams, sr.



Capo: 2nd fret key: e play: d

In the [d] great book of john - youre [g] warned of the [d] day

When youll 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 youre 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 youre ready to meet - the [a7] angel of [d] death.



Chorus
