(w/ rhy. fig. 1 - 2x)
I'm waiting for my visit
They'll fill this room with flowers an' all
They'll put on their biggest smile
But only for a while

If only I could help it
If only mercy'd be on my side
I wouldn't have to die
And my family wouldn't cry

Bridge: (w/ rhy. fig. 2)
But the pain is getting far to strong
And medicine won't hold it for long
It's getting closer
So I'm waiting for someone to come
To come and take my soul where it belongs
But no one's coming, no one

Chorus: (w/ accords)
       A (x02220@1)            ESo (022100@1)I'm calling heaven now
    F#-            DI'm (xx0232@1)calling heaven now
A (x02220@1)              ECalling (022100@1)heaven's hand
          DSo (xx0232@1)heaven help

(w/ rhy. fig. 1)
I try to find the answer
I try to find the reason why I
I'm leaving them all behind
But there's something I will find

Bridge: (w/ rhy. fig. 2)
The blood's still running throught my heart
But my hairs are slowly falling apart
And I just can't take it
So I'm waiting for someone to come
To come and take my soul where it belongs
But no one's coming, no one

Chorus: (w/ accords - 2x)
       A (x02220@1)            ESo (022100@1)I'm calling heaven now
    F#-            DI'm (xx0232@1)calling heaven now
A (x02220@1)              ECalling (022100@1)heaven's hand
          DSo (xx0232@1)heaven help

(w/ rhy. fig. 1)
I see it in their faces
They know I will be leaving tonight
But somewhere down the line
I'm sure we'll meet again

But somewhere down the line
I'm sure we'll meet again
