Chords for The Kingsmen - "I Sing Because" - 1986

[N] Listen, as Arthur sings for you, I [Db] sing to God.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ I've been thinking _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ about _ my [Db] _ _ Lord for many _ _ _ years.
[Gb] I've sung _ when I've been _ happy.
_ I've sung _ when I've had _ fears.
And [Db]
some _ _ folks [Cm] may question _ [Bbm] if it's _ all been just [Ab] a _ joke.
_ But the reason _ _ that [Eb] I'm singing, _ I want the _ world to [Ab] _ know.
I sing _
[Gb] because there is an empty grave.
I sing [Db] _ because there is a power to save.
I sing _ _ because it's great, _ it's real [Ab] to _ _ me.
_ _ _ I sing [Gb] _ because I know I'm not alone.
I sing _ [Db] _ because someday I'm [Bbm] going home, _
Where I'll [Ab] sing to all _ eternity.
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
Now [D] I've sung to _ _ [A]
those walking,
_ [D] Walking through the [Dm] fiery trial. _ _
[G] And I've watched _ their saddened faces
_ Turn _ _ into happy smiles. _ _
Then [D] I've bowed my _ _ [Dbm] head and whispered,
_ Lord, [Bm] please do the same [D] for _ me.
And [E] I cry, _ _ I can tell you that it's _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ I sing [G] because _ _ there _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ is a power to save.
I sing _ _ because it's great, _ [A] it's real to me.
_ It's real to [Bb] me.
I sing _ [Ab] because I know I'm not alone.
I sing _ [Eb] _
because someday I'm [Cm] going _ home,
Where I'll _ [Eb] sing to all _ eternity. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Well, _ I sing [Ab] because I know I'm not alone.
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _
I sing because someday I'm [Cm] going _ _ _ _ _ home,
Where [Bb] I'll sing to all eternity. _ _
