Iron Maiden - Hallowed be thy name

I'm wait^Eming in my cold cell^C, when the bell beg^Dins to chime. ^Em Reflecting on my ^Cpast life and it do^Desn't have much time^Em. ^C'Cause at 5 o'clock they ^Dtake me to the Gallows ^Empole, ^CThe sands of time ^Dfor me are running ^Emlow.

^EmWhen the priest comes to read me the last rites, ^GI ^Ctake a look through the bars at the last sights, ^AOf^D a world that has gone very wrong for me. ^{B E B C Em}Can it be that there's some sort of error. ^GHa^Crd to stop the surmounting terror. ^AIs^D it really the end, not some crazy dream?^{B E B C}

^EmSomebody please tell me that I'm dreaming, ^CIt's not so easy to stop from screaming, ^DBut words escape me when i try to speak.^{B E B C Em}Tears flow but why am I crying, ^CAfter all I'm not afraid of dying. ^DDon't I believe that there never is an end.^{B E B C}

^EmAs the guards march me out to the courtyard, ^CSomebody cries from a cell "God be with you". ^DIf there's a God then why has he let me go?^{B E B C}

^EmAs I walk all my life drifts before me, ^CThough the end is near I'm still not sorry. ^DCatch my soul, it's willing to fly away.^{B E B C}

^EmMark my words believe my soul lives on. ^CDon't worry now that I have gone. ^DI've gone beyond to see the truth.

^EmWhen you know that your time is close at hand. ^CMaybe then you'll begin to understand, ^DLife down here is just a strangeillusion ^{B E B C Em Bm C}
