C        G              F   A7 F A7
Eternal Life is now on my trail
        C                      G
Got my red glitter coffin, man,
               F    A7 F A7
just need one last nail
      C                          G
While all these ugly gentlemen play
              F    A7 F A7
out their foolish games
            C            G
There's a flaming red horizon
              F   A7  F A7
that screams our names

Chorus:
G
And as your fantasies are broken in two
         Em
Did you really think this bloody road would
Pave the way for you?
             D  
You better turn around
                       A                  Em
and blow your kiss hello to life eternal, angel

Racist everyman, what have you done?
Man, you've made a killer of your unborn son
Crown my fear your king at the point of a gun
All I want to do is love everyone.

Chorus:
G
And as your fantasies are broken in two
         Em
Did you really think this bloody road would
Pave the way for you?
             D  
You better turn around
                      A7                C# C F# F B A
and blow your kiss hello to life eternal

A7          C        F#           F
There's no time for hatred, only questions
         B              A                  G
What is love, where is happiness, what is life,
          F
where is peace?
Em
When will I find the strength
to bring me release?

Tell me where is the love
in what your prophet has said?
Man, it sounds to me just like
a prison for the walking dead
And I've got a message for you
and your twisted hell
You better turn around and blow your kiss
goodbye to life eternal angel
Angel
