Bb               C                   Dm
    A father kneels and starts to pray (whoa)
Bb             C                 Dm
    For the son that he can't save (Oh no)
Bb                 C                     Dm
    He would do anything to take his place, but you know
Bb                         C                        Dm
    Sometimes it's hard to understand mysterious ways (whoa)


Gm           Bb                F       C
    So the chariot took him home
Gm            Bb                             F       C
    Now he's running through the streets of gold
Gm           Bb                     F              C
    He is swimming on the crystal seas, can't you see?
Gm              Bb                  F       C
    He will wait there for you and me


Continues after the ad
Bb                C                   Dm
    A mother kneels and starts to weep (whoa)
Bb               C               Dm
    For the children she won't see (oh no)
Bb                      C                      Dm
    And she worked every single day of the week to care for her young
Bb                   C               Dm
    But on that hospital bed she waits to die alone


Gm           Bb               F       C
    So the chariot takes her home
Gm           Bb                      F      C
    She is welcomed in the arms of love
Gm                Bb                     F                 C
    And she is seeing all the beautiful things she dreamed of
Gm                Bb                    F        C
    And she is waiting to greet all of us


                     Dm         Bb
    Don't wait too long
                     Dm         Bb
    Don't wait too long
                     Dm         Bb
    Today could go wrong
                    C
    Don't wait too long to know


Gm             Bb                F         C
    Will the chariot take you home?
Gm             Bb                         F        C
    Are we running down the streets of gold?
Gm             Bb                    F           C
    Are we singing by the crystal seas, you and me?
Gm                Bb                F        C       Gm
    The gift of love has set you free
