Lyrics and Chords
[NC] Oh death [1] [NC] oh death [1] Won't you spare me over til [5] another [1] year
Well what is this that I can't see with ice cold hands taking [5] hold of [1] me Well this is death none can excel I hold the key for [5] heaven or [1] hell
I'll bridle your tongue so you can't talk I'll stiffen your limbs so you can't walk I'll blind your eyes so you can't see this very hour come and go with me
Oh death how you treatin' me you're blindin' my eyes so I can't see Your stiffenin' my limbs and are makin' me cold you're takin' my body from my soul
