---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Angel of Death - Hank Williams ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Dave S. Email: prime-prine@hotmail.com Tuning: Standard E A E In the great book of John youre warned of the day B7 When you'll be laid beneath the cold clay E A E The Angel of Death will come from the sky B7 E And claim your poor soul when the time comes to die. Chorus: A E When The Angel of Death comes down after you B7 Can you smile and say that you have been true E A E Can you truthfully say with your dying breath B7 E That youre ready to meet the Angel of death. E A E When the lights all grow dim and the dark shadows creep B7 And then your loved ones are gathered to weep E A E Can you face them and say with your dying breath B7 E That youre ready to meet the Angel of death. (Repeat Chorus)
