G     D                   Am
Mama, take this badge of me
G       D          C
I can't use it anymore
G             D                 Am
It's getting dark, too dark to see
G          D                   C
Feel I'm knocking on heaven's door

G               D                    Am
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
G               D                    C
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
G               D                    Am
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
G               D                    C
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door

Mama put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore
That long black cloud is coming down
I feel I'm knocking on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door	
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door 
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door

Baby stay right here with me
'Cause I can't see you anymore
This ain't the way it's supposed to be
I feel I'm knocking on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door	
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door 
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door

Son won't you remember me?
I can't be with you anymore
A lawman's life is never free
I feel I'm knocking on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door	
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door 
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
