Can I Take My Gun Up To Heaven

 D

[Verse]
              G         C       G C Cmaj7 D
Can I take my gun up to heaven?
               G                 C   G C Cmaj7 D
You know she's always been by my side
              G         C      G C Cmaj7 D
Can I take my gun up to heaven?
                       G                 C Gsus4
I'll check it with St. Peter at the gate

               D              C        Am  G
And if I had a woman that was faithful
        D                C     Am  G
Or even kind some of the time
                D                        C  Am  G
I'd drag her on up to the gates of heaven
                    D                     C     Am  D
Or follow her right down to the gates of  hell

              G         C       G C Cmaj7 D
Can I take my gun up to heaven?
               G                 C    G C Cmaj7 D
You know she's always been by my side
              G         C       G C Cmaj7 D
Can I take my gun up to heaven?
                       G                 C Gsus4
I'll check it with St. Peter at the gate

C                                 G
When I come home from a long day a-working at the prison
A                          D          C
I find my woman she's not a----round
                              G
She's down at Dahlie's corner a-playing cards and drinking
A                                             D      C D
Or sitting on the cars singing Dixie with the boys

              G         C       G C Cmaj7 D
Can I take my gun up to heaven?
               G                 C    G C Cmaj7 D
You know she's always been by my side
              G         C       G C Cmaj7 D
Can I take my gun up to heaven?
                       G                 C Gsus4
I'll check it with St. Peter at the gate

              G         C       G C Cmaj7 D
Can I take my gun up to heaven?
              G         C       G C Cmaj7 D
Can I take my gun up to heaven?
              G         C       G C Cmaj7 D
Can I take my gun up to heaven?
              G         C       G C Cmaj7 D
Can I take my gun up to heaven?

              G             C       G C Cmaj7 D
Can I take my g----un up to heaven?
