Verse 1
I (E minor) was lost in the dark,
and the fear was in my heart
All around (D major) me, the forest and the (C major) rain
Then with the flash (E minor) of a light,
I saw (A minor) it in the night
I (D major) must be getting near,
Saint Peter's (E minor) Gate!

Verse 2
When I (E minor) went through the door,
he was standing (A minor) in the hall (E minor)
An (D major) old man with a beard of shining (E minor) white
He said "I've been expecting you,
let me show (A minor) you to your room"
And he (D major) took me all the way
by candlelight (E minor)
And lying (D major) there on the bed,
a (A major) book, black and red
My (C major) name was written on the front in gold (B major)
And when I (E minor) opened it up,
there were (A minor) pictures of my life
And a voice (D major) began to call
from down be (E minor) low

Verse 4
"Come with me" said that old man,
as he (A minor) took me by the hand (E minor)
"There is someone (D major) here that
you have seen before (E minor)
In this room on the left,
a (A minor) man who did his best
To bring (D major) joy and happiness
to one and (E minor) all
But in that (D major) room on the right,
a dic (A major) tator in life
We've been (C major) waiting for him here,
as you can tell (Bsus4) (B major)
For (E minor) all the blood the he's spilled,
and for (A minor) all the ones he's killed
We con (D major) demn him to eternity in Hell (E minor)
Verse 5
(C major) Nobody will get through, (G major) nobody
Not even you, (D major)

(G major) Heaven is only there
(A minor) For the ones who satisfy them (Bsus4) at,
(B major) Saint Peter's Gate!"

I woke (E minor) up with the dawn,
there was someone (A minor) in my room (E minor)
A (D major) wo man like an Angel, all in (E minor) white
And then she told me "You must run,
for your (A minor) time has yet to come
Go (D major) now, before they change their (E minor) minds
And from the (D major) window I saw,
a (A major) thousand or more
(C major) Bringing that Dictator to his knees (B major)
An (E minor) d his cries broke the sound
of my (A minor) footsteps on the ground
As I (D major) made it to the safety of the trees (E minor) (D major)
