G7 Now you tell me that there are streets C of gold and angels in the air D Now all that's fine and dandy and G7 I'm sure it's nice up there There's just one thing that C I need to know 'fore I settle down D Can I take my hounds to heaven G7 Can I hunt on God's ground Now you say if I quit drinking and try to toe the line I can make it up to glory at the end of my life And while whiskey's hard to throw away, it's somethin' I'd try to do If I could spend forever runnin' hounds and treein' coons Chorus: C7 But if I can't take my hounds to heaven G7 If I can't hunt on God's land Then I'd rather load my dog box D7 up and go to hell with all my friends G7 Now I'll wake up in the morning C7 and follow you to town D7 If I can take my hounds to heaven G7 If I can hunt on God's ground Now you say if I quit smokin' and my rough and rowdy ways We can hold hands forever on streets of gold someday But the only way I could stand it now, and I hate to say it's true When you give me a hard time, I can do what I wanna do Chorus: If I can't take my hounds to Heaven, if I can't hunt on God's land I'd rather load my dog box up and go to Hell with all my friends And I will wake up in the mornin' and I'll follow you to town If I can take my hounds to Heaven, if I can hunt on God's ground If I can take my hounds to Heaven, if I can hunt on God's ground | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Chords fingeringsC C7 D D7 G7 |
