Текст песни Harley Poe — Herschell Goes To Heaven + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
[Intro]
Am E Am x8
[Verse 1]
Am E Am
Little Herschell enjoyed the snow
Am E Am
He was fond to play outdoors and go
Am E Am
Upon the slopes and around the wood
Am E Am
He'd play outside all night if he could
Am E Am
And why not? He thought it is my right
Am E Am
I think I'll stay outside all night
Am E Am
So, silly Herschell he ran from home
Am E Am
Free to play and free to roam, alright
[Instrumental]
Am E Am x4
[Verse 2]
Am E Am
He made a friend, that very night
Am E Am
To keep him from dismay and fright
Am E Am
He bestowed to it his scarf and his hat
Am E Am
While initiating a cordial chat
Am E Am
Then out jumped the beast carnivorous and wild
Am E Am
With intentions to feast on the guts of the child
Am E Am
Herschell's new friend only stood there and smirked
Am E Am
He had given a warning of the brute that lurked
[Chorus]
Dm Am
Faster and faster you run through the snow
E Am
Poor little waif you have nowhere to go
Dm Am
You think you're having fun but if you only knew
B E
Just around the corner death is waiting for you
[Interlude]
Am E Am
La la la la la la la la
Am E Am
La la la la la la la la la
Am E Am
La la la la la la la la
Am E Am
La la la la la la la la la
[Verse 3]
Am E Am
Terrified and betrayed Herschell ran for his soul
Am E Am
As the creature pursued like a badgering troll
Am E Am
The boy fled with haste for if he was caught
Am E Am
He'd be gormandized and left to rot
Am E Am
But just up ahead a man dressed in red
Am E Am
Stood in the snow though he looked to be dead
Am E Am
Herschell beseeched him, sir can you help?
Am E Am
I'm too young to die, I'm only a welp!
Am E Am
But suddenly the beast, with an impetuous brace
Am E Am
Vanquished the man by clutching his face
Am E Am
The rueful child wished for his bed
Am E Am
He knew he'd be next when the old man was dead!
[Chorus]
Dm Am
Faster and faster you run through the snow
E Am
Poor little waif you have nowhere to go
Dm Am
You think you're having fun but if you only knew
B E
Just around the corner death is waiting for you
[Instrumental]
Am E Am x4
[Verse 4]
Am E Am
Oh great was to be requital of the man to say the least
Am E Am
Like the wing from a fly, he pulled the arm from the beast
Am E Am
The bloody thing shrieked, but the man didn't care
Am E Am
His expression was vacant as he proceeded to tear
Am E Am
The immaculate snow became smudged with gore
Am E Am
As the monster convulsed causing blood to pour
Am E Am
Herschell was safe or so he assumed
Am E Am
But he could not perceive that his future was doomed
Am E Am
Cause the man's intention to engage in the fight
Am E Am
Was to have the boy for his own delight
Am E Am
Herschell was seized and dragged away
Am E Am
His remains were found... the following day
[Chorus]
Dm Am
Faster and faster you run through the snow
E Am
Poor little waif you have nowhere to go
Dm Am
You think you're having fun but if you only knew
B E
Just around the corner death is waiting for you
Dm Am
Faster and faster you run through the snow
E Am
Poor little waif you have nowhere to go
Dm Am
You think you're having fun but if you only knew
B E
Just around the corner death is waiting for you
Dm Am
Faster and faster you run through the snow
E Am
Poor little waif you have nowhere to go
Dm Am
You think you're having fun but if you only knew
B E
Just around the corner death is waiting for you
Dm Am
Faster and faster you run through the snow
E Am
Poor little waif you have nowhere to go
Dm Am
You think you're having fun but if you only knew
B E
Just around the corner death is waiting for you
Dm Am
Faster and faster you run through the snow
E Am
Poor little waif you have nowhere to go
Dm Am B E
Uuuaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh
