The 241ers - Ronnie goes to heaven
There's some picking during the song and some alternation on the chords, but I
think I've got the root chords down so it should be easy enough to follow, you'll
have to listen to the song to see where the adds, sus, 7ths etc are. Also, there's
a second guitar with a capo on the fifth fret playing the same chords for if
you're not playing this one on your own but it would sound great either way.
Oh, [E]Lord, I see a [C]light
I hear [G]broad gates throwing back their bolts
Feel [D]arms of welcome open wide
Oh, [E]Lord, the light is so [C]bright
And I [G]don't know what it means
I [D]don't know what it means
It means [E]rows of shiny [C]fighter jets
And [G]shelves for Nancy's [D]china sets
[E]BODs and [C]candy jars and [D]war (bloody war)
And so much more
Oh, [E]Lord, you are too [C]good to me
Your [G]hands are warm and your grip is firm
Your [D]light is so bright that I can't see
Oh, [E]Lord, is this the [C]promised land?
I [G]pray that you will lead the way
And [D]hold on tightly to my hand
Be[E]lieve me, son, I'll [C]hold you tight
And [G]guide you through the [D]blinding light
To the [E]death of all the [C]union shops
And a [G]noose for Mikhail [D]Gorbachev
Our [E]streets are [C]free from [G]pesky [D]beggars
You'll [E]dine with [C]Marcos and [G]Norie[D]ga
Your [E]slickest [C]schemes and your [G]darkest [D]dreams are [E]coming [C]true
You're gonna [G]get what [D]you deserve
Oh, [E]Lord, the light's [C]so bright
I [G]don't mean to criticize
But it's [D]really starting to hurt my eyes
Oh, [E]Lord, your grip is just a [C]little too tight
If you could [G]loosen it just a touch
You don't [D]have to be so rough
[E]"Rough," you [C]say? You've [G]made my [D]day
[E]Wait'll you [C]see what's [G]on the [D]way
[E]Welfare [C]cuts and [G]Contra [D]funding
Gonna [E]learn you, [C]boy, about [G]pain and [D]suffering
[G]Oh no, what's [D]happe[C]ning?
[G]No, no, it's [D]all a bad [C]dream
[G]My God, what [D]have I [C]done?
[E]Something has gone [D]wrong
[G]Yes, yes, it's [D]all as [C]planned
[G]Ron my boy you are [D]now a [C]man
You'll [G]learn and burn a[D]new each [C]day
To the [E]deepest rungs [D]away
And [E]Heaven's grace may trickle down someday
Oh, Lord, how could I have [C]been so wrong?
My [G]father weren't you [D]with me all along?
Oh, [E]Lord, I want to go [C]back
Purge [G]memory kill history
Dream [D]unilateral attack
Hush, my [E]son, you have done [C]me so proud
[G]Smiling simpering sold my bag
A[D]cross your nation raised my flag
My [E]son, now off to [C]bed with you
I'll [G]wake you when the others have arrived
It won't be long now
They will [E]follow you[C] [G] [D]
They will follow you
He[E]llo, John Paul, it's [C]been too long
It's [G]really great that you've [D]come along
They will follow you
M[E]r. Falwell, what [C]a surprise
[G]Settle in and [D]dry your eyes
They will follow you
[E]Maggie, Henry, [C]Mommy dear
[G]Welcome home, there's [D]room for many [E]more
