I Wanna Be There

D              A    E
People running all around this world
D         A      E 
Trying to make a dime
D      A           E
I just wish they'd open their eyes
D         A      E
Like I've opened mine
A                        D
Sitting here knocking on heaven's door
A                       E
Waiting for the Lord to come
A              D
I just want to be there Lord
D      A   E
To see the Son


   D           A    E
My grandfather is a great great man
         D         A      E
But he's getting a little old
D      A       E
I just need to love him more
       D   A     E
As the age takes hold

      A                  D
Cause one day soon he'll leave this world
  A                E
I pray it won't be long
A              D
I just want to be there Lord
         D    A   E
When you make him strong


D              A    E
People running all around this world
D         A      E 
Trying to make a dime
D      A           E
I just wish they'd open their eyes
D         A      E
Like I've opened mine

A                        D
Sitting here knocking on heaven's door
A                       E
Waiting for the Lord to come
A              D
I just want to be there Lord
D      A   E
To see the Son


D                A         E
Let me tell you about this boss of mine
D          A       E
Making our lives a hell
D           A    E
Sometimes I just have to laugh
   D    A  E
He does it well
    A                   D
But one day there'll be judgement day
A                       E
Looking the Lord in the face
A              D
I just want to be there Lord
        D      A   E
When he pleads his case


D              A    E
People running all around this world
D         A      E 
Trying to make a dime
D      A           E
I just wish they'd open their eyes
D         A      E
Like I've opened mine


A                        D
Sitting here knocking on heaven's door
A                       E
Waiting for the Lord to come
A              D
I just want to be there Lord
D      A   E
To see the Son

D Sometimes when I'm feeling badly C G D Sure could use a friend D When I'm singing sadly C G D Know I can't pretend C G In the blink of an eye G D He seems me there C G Deep in my heart G D He knew I cared G D Broken hearted I couldn't defend C G D Can you hear Him knocking again? C G D Can you hear Him knocking again? D I woke up it as still last night C G D Time to cry myself to sleep D I read the Word it just was right C G D Treasure I'll always keep C G In the blink of an eye G D He seems me there C G Deep in my heart G D He knew I cared G D Broken hearted I couldn't defend C G D Can you hear Him knocking again? C G D Can you hear Him knocking again? D Now when I'm feeling lonely C G D Get down on my knees and pray D To the one and only C G D Savior I got today C G In the blink of an eye G D He seems me there C G Deep in my heart G D He knew I cared G D Broken hearted I couldn't defend C G D Can you hear Him knocking again? C G D Can you hear Him knocking again?
