  • This is where I'll meet my maker tonight
    So this is it
    This is my life
    This is my time
    It's ending tonight
    I made my mistakes
    I tried to live right
    Stepped out of the darkness into the light
    And when I'm gone
    Will they remember
    Will they mourn
    Will they move on
    When my sad songs for lonely son
    His time has come his life is done

    And tonight
    We'll celebrate the end
    Of this life
    And we'll sing
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

    Whhooaa aaooohh
    It's alright
    this is a night like we've began
    With open arms
    This is the way
    The way I'll meet my maker tonight

    And on my grave
    What will it say?
    Here lies another soul that was saved
    So please don't cry
    Just sleep at night
    And I will wait on the other side

    And tonight
    we'll celebrate the end
    Of this life
    And we'll sing
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

    Whooaahh ooohhh
    It's alright
    This is a night like we've began
    With open arms
    This is the way
    The way I'll meet my maker tonight

    And tonight
    We'll celebrate the end
    Of this life
    And we'll sing
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

    Whooaaa ooohh
    It's alright
    This is a night like we've began
    With open arms
    This is the way
    The way I'll meet my maker tonight

    Whhoooaaa oohhh Writer/s: BENJI MADDEN, JOEL MADDEN
