Down Down Up Pause Up Down Up
Capo on the 1st fret
[Intro]
Em C G D (x2)
[Verse]
Em C
I look out to a little house
G D
Nearly fallen apart
Em C
In there sits a wicked man
D Em
Who tortured my simple heart
Em C
Would it take another step
G D
Towards something that's so vile
Em C
He gets up and he looks at me
D Em
and I show him my denial
[Chorus]
(Strum once, normal strumming at end of chorus)
G D
Oh, here's the reaper man
C D
He's looking out to me
G D
Oh, here's the reaper man
C G Em C G D Em C D Em
He's coming to take me, da-da-dum
[Verse]
Em C
I have spent sleepless nights
G D
Dreaming of the day
Em C
That he'll come and take a step
D Em
And walk towards my way
Em C G D
But brittle bones and aching limbs is where I wanna be
Em C D Em
Oh, when that wicked man comes for me
[Chorus]
G D
Oh, here's the reaper man
C D
He's looking out to me
G D
And oh, there's the reaper man
C G Em C G D Em C D Em
He's coming to take me, da-da-daum da-da-dum-dadadum
[Verse]
(Strum once)
Em C
But I believe in redemption,
G D
From a brighter light
Em C
But I ain't going with him
D Em
Without one last fight
(Normal strumming)
Em C
Oh, but that reaper man,
G D
How he loves me so
Em C
And I can't hear his whispers
D Em
As the cold wind blows
[Outro]
G D
Oh, here's the reaper man
C D
He's looking out to me
G D
And oh, here's the reaper man
C G
He's coming to take me,
G D
Oh, there's the reaper man
C D
He's looking out to me
G D
And oh, there's that reaper man
C G Em C G D Em C D G (single strum G)
He's coming to take me, da-da-daup no no, noo- no no no noo-
