Em        Em7              Em6
       My death waits like
Emb6          Em         Em7
       an old drouin (?)
	  Em6        Emb6
       So confident

      a Bible truth
	     F             Am      AmG
      at the funeral of my youth

  G#m                     F#
      My death waits like
		 G#m
      a witched night
	F#                     G#m
     as surely as our love is bright
	       F#              B
     let's not think about the passing time


     Em                D                C
     But whatever lies behind the door
			      B
     there is nothing much to do
     Em             D             C     CB
     Angel or Devil I don't care 
		   Am       AmG             B
     For in front of that door there is you
     Bb     C#  Gm

			      F
     throw him a dime for the passing time

      Bb            C#                  Bb
     My death waits there between your thighs
	       G#                    Cm
     Your cold fingers will close my eyes
	   G#
     Let's think of that

     a few good  times 
		Bm
     before it ends
	      A
     so let's drink to that
	     F#
     and the passing time


     G                 F                    Eb

     where the blackest shadow cowers(?)
		G#             Bb
     Let's pick lilacs for the passing time


     Bm             A
     My death waits there 
		 Bm
     in a double bed 
	   A
     sails of oblivion
	   Bm
     at my head 
		     A
     so pull up your seats against 
	 F#
     the passing time


      Gm               F               Eb
     But whatever lies behind the door
