Lyrics

Would you (D)hold my (Em)hand

if I saw you in heav (D)en?

Would you (D)help me (Em)stand

if I saw you in heav (D)en?

I’ll find my way

through night and day

’cause I know

I just can’t stay

here in heav (D)en.

Would you (D)know my (Em)name

if I saw you in heav (D)en?

Would it (D)be the (Em)same

if I saw you in heav (D)en?

I must be strong

and car ry on

’cause I know

I don’t be long

here in heav (D)en.

Time can (Am)bring you down, time can (C)bend your knees.

Time can (Am)break the heart, have you (C)beg gin’ please,

beg gin’ please.

Be yond the door

there’s peace, I’m sure.

And I know

there’ll be no more

tears in heav (D)en.

(D)en.
