Intro

Hmmmm (Back ground vocals for 8 bars)

A friend had to leave today,

He is heading for the pearly gates.

He said I love it here but I just can’t stay,

This has been my chosen fate.

You see I got a gig in heaven now....and ya know I can’t be late.

Verse 1

I can here you playin’ "Rock Of Ages Pray For Me",

And "Comin’ For To Carry Me Home".

I know in my heart is where you’ll always be.

I’m never gonna be alone.

Bridge

Cause I know that you’re there,

I can hear the music everywhere.

Verse 2

It’s comin’ from the mountains, all across the sea.

On it’s way from heaven, flowin’ out of me.

Now I know the reason why

You joined a band of gypsy angels in the sky.

Chorus

Band of gypsy angels strummin’ gods gift of love.

Band of gypsy angels singin’ from the skies up above.

Solo

Bridge

Verse 2

Chorus (x2)

Singin’ from the skies up above.....singin’ from the skies up above....up above.
