G*= 202022 because i forgot what chord that is
I believe all good people should learn this song.

The stage, it is empty; the Union Halls, dark.
C Em D G
And the lights are so bright that I can't see the stars.
D Em
Ain't no heaven and hell in the Great By-And-By
C G D G
Where the dead they are laugh-ing, singin' and spillin' their wine.
G C D Em
Seattle to Spokane, Missoula to Butte:

The spare-changer's stories so boring and true.
G C D Em
Now the world ain't so lonesome without you around.

Hey, tell me, where can you camp where you can't hear a sound?

Ain't no heaven and hell in the Great By-And-By
C G D G
Where the dead they are laugh-ing, singin' and spillin' their wine.

Say "So Long" to the rails, from the sage to the pine,
C G D G
While the dead they are laugh-ing, singin' and spillin' their wine.

Oh, the stories we'll tell on our last and long ride
C G D G
Where the dead they are laugh-ing, singin' and spillin' their wine.
