CAPO at the 2nd FRET  
 
In the D great book of John  you're G warned of the D day 
When you'll 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 you're 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 you're ready to meet  the A7 Angel of D Death. 
 
Rpt CHORUS
