Well, I wo[Am]nder which song they're gonna p[Em]lay when we go.
I hope it's some[Am]thing quiet and minor and peaceful and [Fmaj7]slow.
When we f[Am]loat out into the ether, into the E[Em]verlasting Arms,
I hope we do[Am]n't hear Marley's chains we forged in [Fmaj7]life.
'Cause the c[Am]hains I been he[F]aring now for m[C]ost of my l[G]ife,
The ch[Am]ains I been hea[F]ring now for mo[C]st of my li[G]fe.
Did you hear the '[C]59 Sound coming through on g[Fmaj7]randmother's radio?
Did you hear the [Am]rattling chains..[G].. in the hospital [Fmaj7]walls?
Did you hear the o[C]ld gospel choir when they came to [Fmaj7]carry you over?
Did you hear your[Am] favorite song [G]one last [Fmaj7]time?
And I won[Am]der were you scared when the m[Em]etal hit the glass?
See, I was pl[Am]aying a show down the road when your spirit left your [Fmaj7]body.
And they t[Am]old me on the front lawn. I'm so[Em]rry I couldn't go,
But I st[Am]ill know the song and the words and her name and the re[Fmaj7]asons.

Seeing as almost all of Gaslight's songs from this album are in D tuning, I
was pretty sure I could make it work for this song too. I took a look at a
few live videos, and this is definitely what he's playing, especially in the
intro. Hope you all enjoy it!
