Intro F C G
G    Am    F    C
Peggy came to me in my sleep

G    Am    F    C
In the middle of the night on a Friday night last week

G    Am    F    C
She whispered hush child but don't be scared

G    Am    F    C
I've got a few words of wisdom that I've come back to share
Chorus
        F          C                         G
and she said, doesn't matter where you come from

F   C                         G
It matters where you go

F   C                         G        F   C                         
no one gets remembered, for the things they didn't do

G    Am    F    C
I said Peggy won't you stay here for a while

G    Am    F    C
We can drink whiskey, we can play cards and we can get wild

G    Am    F    C
She said we'll play poker and we'll play for keeps

G    Am    F    C
I only played angels lately and they never let me cheat

F          C                   G

no one gets remembered, in this listless life, for the things they didn't do

E                          Am                        C
You could say I had a good time, you could say I had class

E                         Am               F               C
You could say that I was born beneath this ceiling made of glass

E                    Am                               C
But I always kept an open house and always did right by my friends

E                   Am                   F               C        
When I get to Saint Peter's gate I'll tell the keeper I'm not the one who 

              G
needs to make amends.

F            C         G       F      C      G
Cause better times are coming, better times ahead

F      C    G                               F            C       G
No one gets remembered, my deathless child, and soon you will be dead.
And Peggy said.
F          C                   G
doesn't matter where you come from

F   C                G
It matters where you go

F   C        G                                 F     C             G
no one gets remembered, in this listless life, for the things they didn't do

F          C                   G
