Hey, St. Peter Chords & Lyrics by Flash and the Pan
Hey, St. Peter
guitar chords lyrics
G#m B
The morning was cold and lonely
E/B B
City lights old and grey
E/B B
The sun arose trying to smile
C#m D#7
Gave it all away
G#m B
The honky-tonk called a stranger
E/B B
The stranger couldn't pay the bill
E/B B
Made a stand, raised his hand
C#m F#
Sang a song, no time to kill
E F# B
I said, Hey, hey, hey, St. Peter
E F# B
I've got a tale to tell
E F# B G#m
I've just been down in New York town
E C#/F
It really feels like hell
E F# G#m
It really feels like hell
G#m B
Billy was out of fashion
E/B B
Manhattan was years ago
E/B B
Yesterday he wasted time
C#m D#7
Money was kind of slow
G#m [ch]B#[/ch]
Billy had friends of glory
E/B B
Billy was a friend of fame
E/B B
Took a chance, raised his hand
C#m F#
Sang a song, now he's back in the game
E F# B
I said, Hey, hey, hey, St. Peter
E F# B
I've got a tale to tell
E F# B G#m
I've just been down in New York town
E C#/F
It really feels like hell
E F# G#m
It really feels like hell
E F# G#m
I said, Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, St. Peter
E F# G#m
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, St. Peter
E F# G#m
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, St. Peter
E C#/F
It really feels like hell
E F# G#m
It really feels like hell

Hey, St. Peter
E F# B
Before you ring your bell
E F# B G#m
Just been down in New York town

Done my time in hell

Done my time in hell
E F# G#m
