On the (Eb)oth er side

Where the (Eb)streets are paved with gold

and you (Bb)nev er grow old on the (Eb)oth er side.

On the (Eb)oth er side

There’s you (Eb)miles and miles of flow ers

and (Ab)lots of pret ty things.

Where the (Eb)sky is a per fect blue

and ev ’ry (Bb7)thing ly looks brand new on the (Eb)oth er side.

Well, I (Ab)nev er been to heav en, I did n’t know what it was like,

but (Eb)God let me have a glimpse in my dream last night.

And (Ab)I could see you smil in’, you were look in’ right at me.

And for the (Eb)first time in a long time on your face I saw some peace.

And I knew (Fm7)ev ’ry thing was (Eb)gon na be al (Ab)right

Do you (Eb)know how much I miss you?

Wish (Ab)I could have said good

Just the (Eb)one more a “I love you.”

Well, I (Ab)nev er been to heav en, I did n’t know what it was like,

but (Eb)God let me have a glimpse in my dream last night.

And (Ab)I could hear you laugh in’, you were look in’ right at me.
