Bm F#
Well, I wonder which song they're gonna play when we go
Bm G
I hope it's something quiet and minor and peaceful and slow
Bm F#

Bm G
I hope we don't hear Marley's chains we forged in life
Bm G D A
'cause the chains I been hearing now for most of my life
A G
Did you hear the '59 Sound coming through on Grandmama's radio?
Bm A G
Did you hear the rattling chains in the hospital walls?
D G
Did you hear the old gospel choir when they came to carry you over?
Bm A G
Did you hear your favorite song one last time?
Bm F#
And I wonder were you scared when the metal hit the glass?
Bm
See, I was playing a show down the road
G
when your spirit left your body
Bm
And they told me on the front lawn
F#
I'm sorry I couldn't go,
Bm F
but I still know the song and the words and her name and the reasons
Bm G D A
And I know 'cause we were kids and we used to hang
Bm G D A
And I know 'cause we were kids and we used to hang
Bm G D A
Young boys
Bm G D A
Young girls
Bm G D A
Young boys
Bm G D A D
Young girls
