VERSE

            D
I know your life
   G         D
On earth was troubled
    D/F# G                  D
And Only you could know the pain
            G                  D
You weren't afraid to face the devil
            A               D
You were no stranger to the rain


CHORUS
        D  G         D
Go rest high on that mountain
          G                D
Son, your work on earth is done
            G     D
Go to hea---ven a shoutin'
     G       D  A           D
Love for the Father and the Son


VERSE
          D         G       D

Oh how we cried the day you left us
   D/F#     G                   D
We gathered round your grave to grieve
             G              D
Wish I could see the angels faces
          A                     D
When they hear your sweet voice sing


REPEAT CHORUS


FIDDLE AND GUITAR SOLOS
