Capo on 1st fret
Verse 1:
E A2
Your in a better place, I've heard a thousand times
E A2
And at least a thousand times I've rejoiced for you
D B7
But the reason why I'm broken, the reason why I cry
A2 B E
Is how long must I wait to be with you
Chorus:
E A2
I close my eyes and I see your face
B7 E B
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
C#m7 B A2 A
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
B7 A2 E E A2 B7 A2
I've never been more homesick than now
Verse 2:
E A2
Help me Lord cause I don't understand your ways
E A2
The reason why, I wonder if I'll ever know
D B7
But, even if you showed me the hurt would be the same
A2 B E
Cause I'm still here so far away from home
