Introduction:  C4   C   C4   C   C4   C   Bb  

               Am7         C/B                     C 
When I get where I'm going
                           F             Am7           F 
On the far side of the sky
                   F         G               C                     Am7 
The first thing that I'm gonna do
             F                                 C                       G 
Is spread my wings and fly
                               Am7       C/B           C 
I'm gonna land beside a lion
                                                 F             Am7                         F 
And run my fingers through his mane
           F                   G                     C               Am7 
Or I might find out what it's like
               F             C                 G 
To ride a drop of rain
                                                               F 
Yeah when I get where I'm going
                                       C 
There'll be only happy tears
                     G 
I will shed the sins and struggles
                               F                                           C 
I have carried all these years
               F 
I'll leave my heart wide open
               Am7 
I will love and have no fear
                                                               G 
Yeah when I get where I'm going
                   Am7                                         C 
Don't cry for me down here
               Am7         C/B                     C 
I'm gonna walk with my granddaddy
                           F             Am7           F 
And he'll match me step for step
                   F         G               C                     Am7 
And I'll tell him how I missed him
             F                                 C                       G 
Every minute since he left
                   A                                           G 
And then I'll hug his neck
                                                               F 
Yeah when I get where I'm going
                                       C 
There'll be only happy tears
                     G 
I will shed the sins and struggles
                               F                                           C 
I have carried all these years
               F 
I'll leave my heart wide open
               Am7 
I will love and have no fear
                                                               G 
Yeah when I get where I'm going
                   Am7                                         C 
Don't cry for me down here
                                   Eb 
So much pain and so much darkness
                             F 
In this world we struggle through
                                         Ab 
All these questions I can't answer
                                                   Bb 
And so much work to do
                 Am7                 C/B                       C 
But when I get where I'm going
                         F                     Am7           F 
And I see my maker's face
               F               G               C       Am7 
I'll stand forever in the light
             F                 C                   G 
Of His amazing grace
                                                       F                         C 
Oh when I get where I'm going
                                                           F 
(Oh when I get where I'm going)
                                       C 
There'll be only happy tears
                     F 
(Hallelujah)
               Am7 
I will love and have no fear
                                               F                         C 
When I get where I'm going
                                                               F                           C 
Yeah when I get where I'm going
       Am7-  C/B-  C-  F-  C-  F
