"Cemetery Gates" is a power ballad[2] by American heavy metal band Pantera.

The song is the fifth track from the 1990 album Cowboys from Hell, the band's fifth record and second with lead singer Phil Anselmo.

The song, the longest in Pantera's discography, showcases Anselmo's vocal ability and range, concluding with screaming high notes answered by Dimebag Darrell on guitar in a trade-off.

The lyrics lament the death of a female lover and the prospect of dying or committing suicide and rejoining her in the afterlife.

A shortened, 5:47-second version without the conclusion was included on the soundtrack of the 1995 film Tales from the Crypt Presents Demon Knight.
