[Verse 1]
Come take this badge off of me
I won't wear it anymore
It's getting too dark to see
I think I must be knocking on heaven's door

[Refrain]
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door

[Verse 2]
Come take these guns off of me
I won't shoot them anymore
Know the sun is setting over me
And I feel like I'm knocking on heaven's door

[Refrain]
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door

[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Come take these guns off of me
I can't shoot them anymore
The sun is setting over me
I feel like I'm knocking on heaven's door

[Refrain]
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door

[Verse 4]
Come wipe these tears from my eyes
I won't shed them anymore
The sun is setting in western sky
I feel like I must be knocking on heaven's door

[Refrain]
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door (Yeah)

[Outro]
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door
