G 
The wind is blowing across the mountain 
                           C    C7
Down on the the valley way below 
   G 
It sweeps the grave of my darling 
       C           C7              G 
When I die, that's where I want to go.  
G 
Lord, send the angels for my darling 
                             C     C7
And take him to that home on high
     G
I'll wait my time out here on earth love 
    C       C7         G
And come to you when I die. 

G  O

G
I hear a voice out in the darkness 
                                  C   C7
It moans and whispers through the pine 
  G
I know it's my sweetheart a calling 
  C        C7                   G
I hear him through the walls of time
G 
Lord, send the angels for my darling 
                             C     C7
And take him to that home on high
     G
I'll wait my time out here on earth love 
    C       C7         G
And come to you when I die. 
  

G  O

G
Our names are carved upon a tombstone
                          C   C7
I promised you before you died 
    G
Our love will bloom forever darling 
C       C7            G
When we raise side by side.  
G 
Lord, send the angels for my darling 
                             C     C7
And take him to that home on high
     G
I'll wait my time out here on earth love 
    C       C7         G
And come to you when I die.
