Penny Dreadful - Opening song Finale
[Intro]
Bbm x3
Bbm
When I was young
Bbm
And scared of the Lord
Ebm Bbm
My mother would sing me a song
Bbm
A tune that I keep in a sacred place
Ebm Bbm
Cause I know that my life won't be long
Gm Db
It tells of the place where you go
Ebm Bbm
When your time here on earth is through
Gb Db
A beautiful place we call heaven
Is it true Fm
Bbm
Please God I pray that it's true
Bbm
'Cause once this land was heaven on earth
Ebm Bbm
Green hills were all you could see
Bbm
But now it's soot and steel and brick
Ebm Bbm
So it looks more like hell to me
Gb Db
And each day brings more and more suffering
Ebm Bbm
And each night is silence and fear
Gb Db
And I wake to the sound of your voice
Fm
But you're not here
Bbm
Why aren't you here?
Bbm
So now I lay me down to sleep
Ebm
I pray the lord
Bbm
My soul to keep
Bbm
Please let me die before I wake
Ebm Bbm
So the Lord my soul, can take
Gb Db
Then maybe I'll finally find you
Ebm Bbm
'Midst the beauty of paradise
Gb
And you'll sing not of dying
Db
But living
Fm
Wouldn't that be nice?
Bbm
Wouldn't that be nice?
