St Peters Gate Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

EmSo time has reached its tireleDss goal C

CAhead outstretched my path unfolDds Em

EmDown into the depDths of hell C

CI've seen enough, I mightD as well Em

Through the circles of fire and stone

To the castle of blood and bone

Lucifer in all his power

Awaits me in my judgment hour

EmBelieve right now it's not tDoo late C

CI'll meet you at St PeteDr's Gate Em

Into the forest I begin

Where the beasts feast on skin

The brittle leaves are black not green

The mark of St Augustine

I meet them here, the poets in men

And the crimes for which they can't defend

They say "eternity can't be that bad

I've lost every love I've ever had"

Believe right now it's not too late

I'll meet you at St Peter's Gate

To sea, the blood of sin

We shed our rags and dive right in

And sink beneath the waves of fire

And feel our innocence expire

For I've done more wrong than I've done right

I saw the darkness devour the light

You cannot save this weary soul

Your every deed will take its toll

Believe right now it's not too late

I'll meet you at St Peter's Gate

How can I just accept this fate

I'll meet you at St Peter's Gate

Ahead the castle's fiery moat

We're seeing all the lost souls float

Across the bridge of tangled bones

Into a world the darkness owns
