Got a (C#dim7)tick et com ing (Dm)home, wish the (D#dim7)of fi cer had (Em)known what a (Fdim7)day to day has (Am)been.

Then I (C#dim7)stum bled thro’ the (Dm)door, drop ping (D#dim7)junk mail on the (Fdim7)floor.

When When will this day (Am)end?

But then your (G6)let ter caught my eye, brought the (F)hope in me to life, ’cause you (G6)know me ver y well, and I (F)bet you wrote me just to tell me: (C)In a lit tle while we’ll be (Am)with the Fa ther.

(Dm7)Can’t you see Him (F)smile?

(C)In a lit tle while we’ll be (Am)home for ev er, (Bb)in a while.

(F)We’re just here to (C)learn to love Him, (Dm)we’ll be home in (F)just a lit tle (Abmaj7)while.

Boy, that (C#dim7)let ter hit the (Dm)spot, made me (D#dim7)think of all I’ve (Em)got and a (Fdim7)all that waits for (Am)me.

Guess I’ve (C#dim7)known it all day (Dm)long.

Won der (D#dim7)where my thoughts went (Fdim7)wrong?

When will my heart be (Am)lieve?

But Wak ing (G6)half way thro’ the night, reach ing (F)t’ward the lamp, the light, pick ing (G6)up the Word I find here’s an (F)oth er let ter to re mind me: (C)In a lit tle while we’ll be (Am)with the Fa ther.

(Dm7)Can’t you see Him (F)smile?

(C)In a lit tle while we’ll be (Am)home for ev er, (Bb)in a while.

(F)We’re just here to (C)learn to love Him, (Dm)we’ll be home in (F)just a lit tle (Abmaj7)while.

Days like (Dbmaj7)these are just a (Bb)test of our (C)will.

Will we (Dbmaj7)walk or will we (Gm)fall?

Well, I can (Dbmaj7)al most see the (Bb)top of the (C)hill,

and I be (Fm)lieve it’s worth it (Gsus)all.

(Abmaj7)while.
