When I Get Where I'm Going Tab
Intro - Csus4-C - Csus4-C - Csus4-C - Bb
Am7 C/B C F Am7 F or (Am/5+)
When I get where I'm goin, on the far side of the sky,
F G C Am7 F C Gsus-G
The first thing that I'm gonna do, is spread my wings and fly,
Am7 C/B C F Am7 F
Gonna land beside a lion, and run my fingers through his mane,
F G C Am7 F C Gsus-G
Or I might find out what's like to ride a drop of rain, yea
(Chorus)
F C
Yea, When I get where I'm goin, They'll be only happy tears,
G F C
I will shed these sins and struggles I have carried all these years,
F
And I'll leave my heart wide open,
Am
I will love and have no fear,
G
Yea when I get where I'm goin,
C
Don't cry for me down here,
I'm gonna walk with my grand-daddy, And he'll match me step for step,
And I'll tell him how I've missed him every minute since he left,
And then I'll hug his neck,
(Chorus)
F C
YEa, When I get where I'm goin, They'll be only happy tears,

But when I get where I'm goin,
