G The wind is blowing across the mountain
Down on the the valley way C below C7
It G sweeps the grave of my darling
When I C die, that's C7 where I want to G go.
G Lord, send the angels for my darling
And take him to that home on C high C7
I'll G wait my time out here on earth love
And C come to C7 you when I G die.
SOLO
G I hear a voice out in the darkness
It moans and whispers through the C pine C7
I G know it's my sweetheart a calling
I C hear him C7 through the walls of G time
G Lord, send the angels for my darling
And take him to that home on C high C7
I'll G wait my time out here on earth love
And C come to C7 you when I G die.
SOLO
G Our names are carved upon a tombstone
I promised you before you C died C7
Our G love will bloom forever darling
C When we C7 raise side by G side.
G Lord, send the angels for my darling
And take him to that home on C high C7
I'll G wait my time out here on earth love
And C come to C7 you when I G die.
