Heaven Is a Small Town

INTRO:
C  F  C  F
VERSE:
                C
God I know
               F
That heaven might be different 
                          C
from what I know
                F                                     
With crowded city streets 
                          Am
and no backroads

Paved with dirt
                  G
Like I’m used to here on earth
                C
God I know
              F
You’ll meet me at the gates 
                           C
when I come home
            F                                           Am
I’ve heard it’s even better than I hoped

That it could be
              G    
Even bigger than I dreamed

PRE Chorus:
                             Dm
Don’t get me wrong
                      F             G
But Lord when I go

CHORUS:
                          F                              C
Hope I can’t walk those streets of gold
                   F                    C
without seeing folks I know
              F                           C                     G
And hearing some old story about my mama
                         F                     C
Hope under that big city steeple
                 E                  Am  G  
It still feels like 50 people
       F                     C                       G
Singing out of hymnals to our Father
                       F                     C/E
I want my family and my Jesus
         Dm                          C/E
Both just three doors down
                       F                   G          C
Oh I hope Heaven is a small town

VERSE 2:
                      C
Where I’m from
                    F
We take real good care of people 
                   C
that we love
                    F
So they know just where they’ll go when 
                Am
time is up

And they move on
                 G
No it’s not goodbye for long

CHORUS:
                          F                              C
Hope I can’t walk those streets of gold
                   F                    C
without seeing folks I know
              F                           C                     G
And hearing some old story about my mama
                         F                     C
Hope under that big city steeple
                 E                  Am  G

BRIDGE:
                     Dm
Oh God I hope
                            G
It’s like what I know
                             Dm
Don’t get me wrong
                           G
But Lord when I go

CHORUS:
                          F                              C

              F                           C                     G
And hearing some old story about my mama
                         F                     C

Oh I hoe Heaven is a small town
