Intro:  Am

               Am
What an awful day

When the judgment comes

And the sinners hear
               E
Their eternal doom
             Am
At the sad decree

They’ll depart fore’
             Dm     E7
Into endless woe
     Am             E   G   Am        (Rest)
And gloom, endless woe and gloom

Refrain:
            Am
I’m paying now
Am
The penalty
Am
That the unredeemed
           E
Must ever pay
                  Am
Though for help I cry
Am
It is all in vain
               Dm    E7
For alas I’m doomed
Am            E    G  Am
Fore’, I’m doomed fore’

             Am
If I could recall
Am
All the years now gone
Am
For my saviors cause
                    E
I would spend each one
                Am
But they never again
Am
Can to me return
                 Dm  E7
And the task is left
Am            E   G  Am
Undone, its left undone

Refrain:
            Am
I’m paying now
Am
The penalty
Am
That the unredeemed
           E
Must ever pay
                  Am
Though for help I cry
Am
It is all in vain
               Dm    E7
For alas I’m doomed
Am            E    G  Am
Fore’, I’m doomed fore’

        Am
Oh I realize
Am
But alas too late
Am
What a dark mistake
                 E
All my life has been
Am
I refused his love
Am
With a various heart
                    Dm  E7
And I must pay the price
Am            E    G  Am
Of sin, the price of sin

Final Refrain:
            Am
I’m paying now
Am
The penalty
Am
That the unredeemed
           E
Must ever pay
                  Am
Though for help I cry
Am
It is all in vain
               Dm    E7
For alas I’m doomed
Am            E    G  Am
Fore’, I’m doomed fore’
