G
I keep puttin’ off my letters hopin’
C
tomorrow will bring better news
    G                 C
Of what’s to come my darlin’

G
I know it’s so hard for you
C
to sit while I try and do
    G                   C
The things I am, I’m not a man

[Chorus]
        D
So I’ll kick up the dust while
   Am                               G
I wonder through the fields that I must
  Am                           G
Knowin’ all the time that I’m just
 Am                    D               G
Walkin’ toward those friendly gates I trust

[Verse]
G
I keep prayin’ every night
C
that the land I have in sight
    G                           C
Won’t be gone when the mornin’ comes

G
for the faith you placed in me
C
Is all the ground there needs
          G                 C
to be for everything I ever dreamed

[Chorus]
        D
So I’ll kick up the dust while
   Am                               G
I wonder through the fields that I must
  Am                           G
Knowin’ all the time that I’m just
 Am                    D               G
Walkin’ toward those friendly gates I trust

G
The feelin’ that I get from
C
the candles you have lit
      G                       C
In my lonely mind I’ve got to find

G
For me to give up now would be
C
the only reasons how
       G                     C
I could never live the way I wanna live

[Chorus]
        D
So I’ll kick up the dust while
   Am                               G
I wonder through the fields that I must
  Am                           G
Knowin’ all the time that I’m just
 Am                    D               G
Walkin’ toward those friendly gates I trust

 Am                    D               G
Walkin’ towards those friendly gates I trust
