| Mama, | take this badge off of | me |
| G | D | C |
| I can't | use it any | more |
| G | D | Am7 |
| It's getting | dark, too dark to | see |
| G | D | C |
| Feel I'm | knocking on heaven's | door |
| G | D | Am7 |
| Knock knock | knocking on heaven's | door |
| G | D | C |
| Knock knock | knocking on heaven's | door |
| G | D | Am7 |
| Knock knock | knocking on heaven's | door |
| G | D | C |
| Knock knock | knocking on heaven's | door |
| G | D | Am7 |
| Mama, | put my guns in the | ground |
| G | D | C |
| I can't | shoot them any | more |
| G | D | Am7 |
| That long black | cloud is coming | down |
| G | D | C |
| I feel I'm | knocking on heaven's | door |
| G | D | Am7 |
| Baby, | stay right here with | me |
| G | D | C |
| Cause I can't | see you any | more |
| G | D | Am7 |
| This ain't the | way it's supposed to | be |
| G | D | C |
| I feel I'm | knocking on heaven's | door |
| G | D | Am7 |
| Son, | won't you remember | me? |
| G | D | C |
| I can't | be with you any | more |
| G | D | Am7 |
| A lawman's | life is never | free |
| G | D | C |
| I feel I'm | knocking on heaven's | door |
