Introd.: C#m B A F#m C#m/G# B9 (2x)
C#m7 B/D# E
Well, i’ve heard a million times
E/G# A9
In many songs and rhymes
C#m E/G# B9 B
I’ve witnessed arguments about how it will be
A/C# B/D# E
Will it be every living eye
E/G# A9
To see him coming in the sky
C#m B9 A
And what about the midnight cry, i hear them say
C#m7 B/D# E
Are the streets like I was told
E/G# A9
Are they really made of gold
C#m E/G# B9 B
And will Jerusalem be built where it is now
F#m7 C#m
How can there be a crystal sea
B9 A
If the sea has ceased to be
Bsus4 B A Esus4 E
All these questions annoy me, i just don’t care
E/G# A B9
Cause i want to be there
E
I just want to be there
E/G# A B C#m
And sit at my je-sus' feet
E/G# B9 B
I wanna be there
A B E
I just don't care about the crown
F#m E/G# A
Or the color of the gown
Bsus4 B A E (B/D#)
As long as jesus is in town i wanna be there
( C#m B A F#m C#m/G# B9 )
A9 B7/A A9 ( A B C#m B )
I know there are things in this life that we can’t understand
Bsus4 B D E/G# A9
There are moments we tend to forget where we belong
B7/A A9 ( E B/D# C#m B )
Sure, there’s time… yes, there’s wealth in that beautiful place
Bsus4 C#m B A7+ Bsus4 B C#m
But all i want is to see him face to face
E/G# A9 A B
I just want to be there
Esus4 E
I just want to be there
E/G# A B C#m
And sit at my je-sus' feet
E/G# Bsus4 B
I wanna be there
A B E
I just don't care about the crown
F#m E/G# A9
Or the color of the gown
Bsus4 B A
As long as jesus is in town
( C#m B A F#m C#m/G# B9 ) 2x
i wanna be there.
