In A Gothic Church chords by Walter Martin
Verse 1
C
See the orange sun drop on the street,
high heels clip -clop,
the girls in fine dresses
all cross when the cars stop.
Dirty old dogs bark in the
alley where it's dark,
and I tie my necktie in the lot
where the cars park.
Walkin' there up the stairs
and I'm fixin' on my hair
I used to try to look nice,
now I don't really care
Dm
My oh my,
look who's come to say goodbye
F
C
To the church I walk in,
as the singing begins
A nod to my old friend Tim,
wow his hair got so thin
The girl whispers, how are you,
as I slide into the pew, I say,
good, how about you?
She whispers, good too,
Dm
together we rise,
with the colored lights shining
F
in our eyes.
C
Down on the ground,
where it's ugly and brown,
and up in the rafters,
heavenly sound echoes round.
The man in the robe with the candles,
I'm told, went to high school with
my Uncle Bob while he's old.
Dm
And everybody cries,
gets down on their knees
F
another time.
Dm
Yeah, everybody cries,
goes searching through their
F
C
pockets for a dime.
When we all stand and sing as the organ,
it rings the big grand finale,
some song about kings.
The old folks feel redeemed,
and the children fuss and scream,
and I see myself, Lord, some
Dm
Somewhere in between, my oh my
F
Maybe I got something in my eye
Dm
But I can't lie, I can't tell
F
C
the ceiling from the sky
Thank you for watching.
