LET ME FLY LOW (Charlie Waller & The Country Gentlemen)
By: Dixie Hall (BMI)

VERSE 1: SAD IS THE FEELING, DREADFUL THE GRIEVING
WHEN ONE REMAINS AND THE OTHER MUST GO
IT WON'T BE HEAVEN WITHOUT HER BESIDE ME
PLEASE TELL THE ANGEL, LORD, LET ME FLY LOW

CHORUS: LET ME FLY LOW, LORD, LET ME FLY LOW
LET ME WATCH OVER HER WHEN SHE'S ALONE
IF IT'S YOUR WILL, LORD, IF I MUST GO
PLEASE TELL THE ANGEL TO LET ME FLY LOW

VERSE 2: MANY THE LOVED ONE GONE ON TO GLORY
NOW IT'S MY TURN TO BE LAID OUT AND COLD
I CAN'T LET GO OF THE HAND OF MY DARLIN'
SHE WHO WAS GIVEN TO HAVE AND TO HOLD

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 3: SHOVELS OF CLAY AND BLANKET OF ROSES
THEN TEARS WILL FALL ON MY PILLOW OF STONE
THAT'S WHEN SHE'LL NEED ME, SO LORD LET ME HOVER
WAITING TO CARRY MY DARLIN' ON HOME

VERSE 4: PRECIOUS THE LIFETIME WE SPENT TOGETHER
NOW EVERYTHING BUT THE MEMORY'S GONE
SHE BRINGS A HANDFUL OF PRETTY WHITE DAISIES
OH WHAT I'D GIVE JUST TO FOLLOW HER HOME
