Doors Of Heaven
Arlo Guthrie 1996 (Arlo Guthrie / Mystic Journey)
G
G Am D
If all the doors were closed in heaven
G
Where would all the angels go?
Am D
Would they just fly around forever
G
Or would they come down here below?
C G
If the pearly gates were closed this morning
B7 Em Em D C
Would there be angels here tonight?
D G Am
And would they live their lives among us
D G C D G
And share the darkness with their light?
G Am D
If all the doors were close in heaven
G
They'd have to close the road to hell
Am D
We'd all be stuck here with each other
G
There would be nowhere else to dwell
C G
If the pearly gates were closed this morning
B7 Em Em D C
And everyone there had to leave
D G Am
And death was nothing but a moment
D G C D G
Beyond the breaths you took to breathe
G Am D
If all the doors were closed in heaven
G
Who would dare abuse a child
Am D
Or let a little kid go hungry
G
Or not return a simple smile
C G
If the pearly gates were closed this morning
B7 Em Em D C
And the host of heaven was on the street
D G Am
I wonder if they'd look much different
D G C D G
From the likes of you and me
G Am D
So I hope they close the doors to heaven
G
And all the angels up above
Am D
Come and build a home among us
G
Remind us what it is to love
C G
If the pearly gates were closed this morning
B7 Em Em D C
Would there be angels here tonight?
D G Am
And would they live their lives among us
D G C D G
And share the darkness with their light?
