Verse 1:
 A                                   B7                           D
The  morning  comes  with  such  pain,   but  it's  nothing  like 
            E7             A   As4  A                            B7
The dose I get, when it's night,   and I can't help but wondering 
                   D            E7                A   As4 A
Just  what  it  is,  ain't  I  living  my  life  right

Verse 2:
                           B7               D                 E7  
The cigarettes I'm smoking,  don't realize,  nor does the glass 
             A       As4 A                                   B7
From  which  I  drink,    for  how  are  they  to  know  just  
                   D                E7                A   
Just  what  it  is,  to   be   a   man,   about  to  sink

Chorus:
Ab                  A                       
Oh  Lord,   it's   not  my  time  to  go  
Ab             A        D          A        B7     A
Oh  Lord,   before  I  go,  I've  got  to  show

Verse 3: 
                                  B7                               D
The  lights  keep  getting  dimmer,  hey,  but  what's  that  to  me
             E7                A   As4  A                          B7
The morning comes,  with each night,  a voice keeps calling my name
                     D           E7               A   
So loud and so clear,  I'll  pretend,  I'm  not  here

Chorus:
Ab                  A                       
Oh  Lord,   it's   not  my  time  to  go
Ab             A        D          A        B7      A
Oh  Lord,   before  I  go,  I've  got  to  show,  (something)
 
Instrumental: 
A  B7  D  E7  A As4  A  B7  D  E7  A

Verse 4:
 A                               B7                  D
No,  I  can't  go  yet  no  I've,  something  to  do 
                 E7                  A  As4 
And  it  might  take,  a  bit more  time 
A                                B7                           D 
The  time  it  takes  to  get  up,  and  walk  out  that  door  
                E7           A   
And  see  the  world  as  before

Chorus:
Ab                 A                       
Oh  Lord,   it's  not  my  time  to  go
Ab             A        D         A      B7     A
Oh  Lord,   before  I  go,  I've got to show
