GA deaf man with my Dear to the ground
Just lCadd9istening for what You say

GThe kingdom is a gDolden table and Cwe are beggars all
Chorus:
Are these jGust some words that I sDay aloud?
Is this jEmust the sun breaking thCrough the clouds?
Oh, I kGnow it's more and I kDnow somehow that

GThe kingdom waits with oDpen arms
For piClgrims headed home
