[Cm] Before I sing this song, I just want to share a little bit about it.
It's a song that's written in the form of a story.
[Gm]
And it's [C] a song talking [F] about the [C]
pain that one feels [D] when they go to heaven
[C]
looking for someone that they thought [F] was there and found out that they wasn't [C] there.
Now I know all of us [D] have people that we [G] desire [Em] to
[C] see there.
[F] And so as I sing this song, just think about [C] them and also think about [G] yourself as [Dm] well
and where you stand with [C] Jesus.
Listen.
[F]
[G] I [C] dreamt I
[Dm] went to
[C] heaven [F] last night
[G]
[C] There were many [Dm] mansions up there, [C] what a wonderful [F] sight
[Dm]
Then I saw a [Am] door with your name [Bb] and something else written [F] in red
It
[Dm] said this one's empty, [Am] he wanted the world
[G] instead
Tears [C] in heaven,
[Dm] I [C] know Jesus [F] will wipe them away
And [G] when I [C] was crying,
[Dm] [F]
[C] in his gentle [F] voice I heard [C] him [F] say
[Abm]
[Am] There's a void in my heart, [Fm] I wish you [F] could see
[C] I wanted him right here [Gb] with me
[F] And now I [Dm] know why there [F] will be [Gm] tears
[C] in heaven
[Dm] [Gm] There
[C]
[F] [G]
were [C] many
[Dm] searching [Em] for [C] family [F] and friends
[G]
[C] Up and down [Dm] the streets of gold, [C] from end to [F] end
[Am] Then [Dm] I saw the [Am] books with your name [Bb] and all of the [F] secrets you hide
[C] And the [Dm] tears came again as [Am] I saw all the times Jesus [G] tried
[C] Tears in heaven,
[Dm] I [C] know Jesus [F] will wipe them away
[G] And when [C] I was crying,
[Dm]
[C] in his gentle [F] voice I heard him [G] say
[Abm] [E]
[Am] There's a void in my heart, [Fm] I wish you [F] could see
[G] I wanted [C] him right [Gb] here with me
[F] And now I [Dm] know why [F] there will be [Ab]
[Am] tears in heaven
I'm so [E] glad that [Am] it was only just [Em] a [D] dream
[F] It was only [G] a dream
[F] [C]
While [Dm] there's still just
[C] a little bit more [F] time
[G]
[C] Use it wisely,
[Dm] don't hesitate
[C] to make up [F] your mind
[Dm] Very soon there'll [Am] be no more chances [Bb]
and it will be time [F] to destroy
[Dm] And I wanna be standing [Am] with you, crying tears [G] of joy
[C] Tears in heaven, [Dm]
I [C] know Jesus [F] will wipe them [G] away
[Dm] And while we [C] are crying, [Dm]
[F] [C] in his gentle [F] voice we'll [C] hear him [G] say
[Fm] [E] I'm [Am] so glad that you're here [Fm] together [F] with me, [C]
living forever [Gb] and free
And [F]
now I [Dm] know why there [G] will be, [F]
now [Dm] I know why [G] there will [C] be
[G] [F]
Now [C] I know there [F]
will be [C]
tears in heaven
[Dm] There'll
[C]
[F] be [G] tears [C] of sorrow [Dm] and
[Em] tears of [C]
joy [F]
[G] [F]
in heaven
