INTRO: (SAME AS VERSE)

VERSE: 
 
G                     C 
Alpine Valley, in the middle of the night 
G                         C 
Six Strings Down, on the heaven-bound flight 
       G       G7       C           C7 
Got a pick, a strap, guitar on his back 
C                    C7       C 
Ain't gonna cut the angels no slack 
G                   D                          G 
Heaven done called another blues stringer back home 
 
 
VERSE: 
G                     C 
See the voodoo chile, holding out his hand 
G                                 C                    
I've been waitin' on you brother, Welcome to the band 
       G         G7          C       C7   
Good blues stringin', heaven-fine singin' 
C                               C7           C

G                   D                           D  
Heaven done called another blues stringer back home 
G                   D                          D 
Lord, they called another blues stringer back home

Heaven done called another blues stringer back home
