Tabbed by Emma This is an easy version of a fantastic song, St Peter's Gate, by Matt Walters, which is on his album Farewell Youth. This is not exactly how Matt plays the song; this is an easy version with chords. http://www.mattwaltersmusic.com/ Em D C So time has reached its tireless goal C D Em Ahead outstretched my path unfolds Em D C Down into the depths of hell C D Em I've seen enough, I might as well Through the circles of fire and stone To the castle of blood and bone Lucifer in all his power Awaits me in my judgment hour Em D C Believe right now it's not too late C D Em I'll meet you at St Peter's Gate Into the forest I begin Where the beasts feast on skin The brittle leaves are black not green The mark of St Augustine I meet them here, the poets in men And the crimes for which they can't defend They say "eternity can't be that bad I've lost every love I've ever had" Believe right now it's not too late I'll meet you at St Peter's Gate To sea, the blood of sin We shed our rags and dive right in And sink beneath the waves of fire And feel our innocence expire For I've done more wrong than I've done right I saw the darkness devour the light You cannot save this weary soul Your every deed will take its toll Believe right now it's not too late I'll meet you at St Peter's Gate How can I just accept this fate I'll meet you at St Peter's Gate Ahead the castle's fiery moat We're seeing all the lost souls float Across the bridge of tangled bones Into a world the darkness owns
