B
When they carried  you into the parlor
      E                          B                       
Your  wounds were the worst  I'd seen
                       G#m
Cold as snow your body trembled 
F#
Craddled in the  arms of morphine
B
All the kinfolk cried out loud
      E                 B
Good shepherd save this man
                       G#m
But you whispered with icy  breath
      F#
It is not in his hands and you said
E                         B
Heaven ain't ready for me yet and you looked at me 
E                               B
Give  me your heart and take a bet and you held my hand
E                                      F#
Now I've seen your face now that we've met
                 B   E
I shall not slip away
B
Mama said to me, daughter
         E                 B
You must nurse your cousin well
                        G#m                 
So I cared for you thru days and night
         F#
But your fever I did not quell
B
For weeks I watched you suffer pain
        E              B 
That no laudanum could ease
                  G#m
All I had left to do is pray
          F#
Lord have mercy on him please - and you said
E                         B
Heaven ain't ready for me yet and you looked at me 
E                              B
Give  me your heart and take a bet and you held my hand
E                                     F#
Now I've seen your face now that we've met
                 B   E
I shall not slip away
B
Now winters lights  has  cooled  the air 
   E                       B
At last your strength's returned  
                      G#m
You talk to me of the life you spent 
F#
And of the life you've earned
B
You'll waste no time on vengenance
          E              B
You've no wish  to fight again
                        G#m
To find peace  you say  In God  we trust
    F#
Put little faith in man
E                               B
No, Heaven  aint ready  for you yet,  Jesse
E                                   B
I'll  give you my heart I'll  take a bet Jesse
E                                     F#
Now Ive seen your face now that we've met
                  B      E    B
We shall not slip away
