Em [Verse 1]Em Well, I had a dream the other nightAm7 Em I felt that I saw Jesus in the Pale moonlightEm And maybe I could be mistakenEm Am7 Em He would not smile upon me nor take my handEm While I stand here all alone deep in the darknessAm7 Em Saint Peter buzz away into the promised land [Verse 2]Em An angel calls my name from deep beneath the earthContinúa después del anuncioAm7 Em Come give to me your soul I'll tell you what it's worthEm I've been a drunken fool I've broken every ruleAm7 Em And now what seems to be right turns out to be wrong [Verse 3]Em Don't let my soul down, oh God, I do confessAm7 Em Don't let me suffer here the Devil wants soulEm If I could ask of you a simple questionAm7 Em I do not want to bug you nor waste your time [Verse 4]Em I sit here drinking among my fellow menAm7 Em They all seem happy to me, what is the sin?Em The largest sacred brook, alive with fish I knowAm7 Em A sacred hand's above and darkside is doneEm Pray tell me who you are, what is your memory?Am7 Em Don't you know that sin has been my favorite time?Em I dreamed that I'd a dream [?]Am7 Em And all I've ever known I wasn't to forget
