Verse 1: Won't you take me with you darling I don't want to stay And this place just keeps on getting sadder ever since you went away And I smell you on this pillow as I lie here in our old bed With a bottle and a bible, I just pray I might get some rest When I get my wings I'm a gonna Fly back home to you And go ahead and you can tell St. Peter Open up, I'm coming through Verse 2: And I put you in that blue dress and a new pair of high heel shoes And a photograph of two love drunk kids on the day that they said i do 57 years of memories fall like the rain comes down And I could not help myself but cry as they laid you in the ground When I get my wings I'm a gonna Fly back home to you Go ahead and you can tell St. Peter Open up, I'm coming on through Bridge: And every Sunday I kneel down to pray that I won't be alone And every night I lay down and hope I wake up back in your arms (not too sure about the chords in this verse) Solo: When I get my wings I'm a gonna Fly back home to you And go ahead and you can tell St. Peter Open up, I'm coming on through And I don't think, don't think I can wait any longer O Lord I'm counting down the days I'm gonna come back, come back and hold you my love Soon as I get my wings o Lord Just as soon as I get my wings one more time Lord Soon as I get my wings
