G G Am D If all the doors were closed in heaven G Where would all the angels go? Am D Would they just fly around forever G Or would they come down here below? C G If the pearly gates were closed this morning B7 Em Em D C Would there be angels here tonight? D G Am And would they live their lives among us D G C D G And share the darkness with their light? G Am D If all the doors were close in heaven G They'd have to close the road to hell Am D We'd all be stuck here with each other G There would be nowhere else to dwell C G If the pearly gates were closed this morning B7 Em Em D C And everyone there had to leave D G Am And death was nothing but a moment D G C D G Beyond the breaths you took to breathe G Am D If all the doors were closed in heaven G Who would dare abuse a child Am D Or let a little kid go hungry G Or not return a simple smile C G If the pearly gates were closed this morning B7 Em Em D C And the host of heaven was on the street D G Am I wonder if they'd look much different D G C D G From the likes of you and me G Am D So I hope they close the doors to heaven G And all the angels up above Am D Come and build a home among us G Remind us what it is to love C G If the pearly gates were closed this morning B7 Em Em D C Would there be angels here tonight? D G Am And would they live their lives among us D G C D G And share the darkness with their light?
