Intro: E F#m E/G# A9 (2x)

             E     F#m    E/G#
Well, I've heard a million times
               A9
In many songs and rhymes
             E     F#m    E/G#
I've witnessed arguments about 
        B
how it will be
           E     F#m    E/G#
Will it be every living eye
                A9
To see him coming in the sky
               F#m     G#m    A9
And what about the midnight cry, I 
         E
hear them say

           E      F#m      E/G#
Are the streets like I was told
                   A9
Are there really made of gold
               E      F#m      E/G#
And will Jerusalem be built where it 
    B
is now
          E      F#m      E/G#
How can there be a crystal sea
                 A9
If the sea has ceased to be
             F#m       G#m       A9
All these questions annoy me, I just 
     E9
don't care

           A9           B
'Cause I want to be there
            E/G#
I just want to be there
          F#m    G#m    A9
And sit at my Jesus' feet
            B
I wanna be there
             A       B        E
I just don't care about the crown
 E/G#       B        A9
Or the color of the gown
            F#m        G#m       A9
As long as Jesus is in town I wanna 
     E
be there

   A9          B                 A9
I know there are things in this life 
    B              A9
that we can't understand
      B                  A9
There are moments we tend to 
 F#m       G#m       A9
forget where we belong
         B                 A9
 Sure, there's time, yes, there's 
        B                   A9
wealth in that beautiful place
        B              A    E/G#    A9
But all I want is to see him face to face
