[G] Jordan is waiting for me to [D] cross through [C] My heart is [G] aging I can't tell
So [D] _
[G] Lord I'm begging for one last [D] favor from you
[G]
[C] Here's my heart, [Em] take it where you [G] will _ _ _ It's like you've shown me [Em] how we're mended
and how we're torn [C] How it's okay to [Am] be lonely as long as [G] you're
free _ [D] _
[G] Sometimes my ground was stony
[Em] Sometimes covered up in [D] thorns [C] And only you can make it what [Em] it had to [D] be
[G] And now that it's [Am] done Well if they treat me [Bm] like a [G] pauper
[C] Or if they dine on me like a [G] prince [Am] If they leave me [Bm] with my fathers
[C] Or if my ashes scatter [D] on the wind I don't [G] care
When I leave I'm gonna go out like [C] a [D] lighter [Em] With the wind of you in [D] my [G] chair
And you in [C] my [D] mind I [G] went under back on the stars
Well it'll be like a [B] candlelight [Em] essential for me
[Dm] _ [A] [C] And it won't break my heart [G] to say goodbye But _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] these people been friendly
But they'll never be a [D] friend [Em] [C] Sometimes this has bent me to the [G] ground
But _ now that this is all ending I wanna [Em] hear some music once again
Cause [C] it's the finest thing I have ever [G] found
What _ the Jordan is waiting Though I ain't [Em] never seen the other side
They [C] say you can't take in the things you [D] have here
So _ [G] on the road to salvation [D] I stick out [Em] my thumb and it gives me a ride
And [C] this music is already [Am] falling on [G] my ears
[Am] But these people [G] been talking And [C] say they're worried about [G] my soul
Well I'm here to [Am] tell you I'll [G] keep rocking [C] Till I'm sure it's my [D] time to roll
And when [G] I do When I leave [Am] I'm gonna go [G] out like a [C] lighter
[D] With [Em] the wind of you in [D] my chair [G] And you in my [C] mind
_ [D] And [G] when I look back on the [C] stars [G] Well it'll be like a [B] candlelight essential [Em] for [A] me
[C] And it won't break [G] my heart to say goodbye When I leave I'm [Am] gonna go [G] out like a [C] lighter
[D] With [Em] the wind of you in [D] my chair
[G] _
[C] _ _ [D] And when [G] I look back on the [C] stars Well it'll be [G] like a [B] candlelight essential [Em] for me
