Better Place  Dec.14, 07

 

(D) I'm goin' somewhere, (G) I'm gettin' outta here (Em)

I'm headin' for (G) New Jeru(F#/G)sa(Em)lem

This world's not my home, it's not where I belong

My Home's a new and better Place

one where (A) I'll behold (A4) my Savior's (A) face

 

all of God's true children were never flad-a-wavin'

patriots of some earthly land

But pilgrims & strangers aware of the dangers

in calling some place on earth your home

all the way down from Egypt to Rome

 

(Ch.:)

Not satis(D)fied with (G) earthly (A) fakes

we'll look on high for God's Own State

Won't fall for lies but we will wait

for the (G) Real Thing, 'cause we're (A) heading

for a Better (D) Place (G-Em-A4-A)

 

(D) I'm goin' somewhere, (G) I'm gettin' outta here (Em)

I'm headin' for (G) New Jeru(F#/G)sa(Em)lem

This world's not my home, it's not where I belong

Darling, the best is yet to come

Safe & sound in dear Jesus' arms

 

For justice we hunger, we're never warmongers or

patriots of some earthly land

But pilgrims & strangers aware of the dangers

in making the devil's ways your own

all the way from Saigon to Cologne

or Alsaka down to San Antone

nor your glorious NWO

 

(Chorus 2x)

 

for a Better (D) Place (G-Em-A4-A) (2x)
