When I Get My Wings Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Won't you take me with you darling
[C]I don't w[D]ant t[G]o stay
And this place just keeps on getting sadder
[C]ever since [D]you [G]went away
And I smell you on this pillow
as I [C]lie here in [D]our old [G]bed
With a bottle and a bible,
I just [C]pray i might [D]get some [G]rest
When I [C]get my wings I'm a [G]gonna
[D]Fly back home [G]to you
And go [C]ahead and you
can tell St. [G]Peter[Em]
Open [C]up, [D]I'm coming [G]through
And I put you in that blue dress and
a [C]new pair of [D]high heel [G]shoes
[C]And a [G]photograph of two love drunk kids on
the [C]day that they [D]said i [G]do[C][G]
57 years of memories [C]fall like
the [D]rain comes [G]down
And I could not help myself but cry
as [C]they laid [D]you in [G]the ground
When I [C]get my wings I'm a [G]gonna
[D]Fly back home [G]to you
Go [C]ahead and you can tell St. [G]Peter[Em]
Open [C]up, [D]I'm coming
[G]on [D]through
And every [C]Sunday I kneel down to [G]pray
that I won't [C]be alone[G][Bm]
And every night [C]I lay down and hope
[D]I wake [G]up back [D]in your arms
[G][C][G][C][D][G]
[C]Whe[D]n I[G]
[C]get my wings I'm a [G]gonna
[D]Fly back home [G]to you
And go [C]ahead and you can tell St. [G]Peter
Open [C]up, I'm coming on [D]through
And I don't [C]think,
don't think I can wait [G]any longer
O [D]Lord I'm counting down
[G]the days
I'm gonna [C]come back,
come back and [G]hold you my [Em]love
[C]Soon as I [D]get my wings
[G]O L[Em]ord
Just [C]as soon as I [D]get my wing[G]s
One more [Em]time Lord
[C]Soon as I [D]get my wings
[G]
