Start Jamming...
[G]
[C] Children, [G] I've already started [C] out to find a [G] better home
Where no sickness and no sorrow, [D] obviously, oh the world will come
[Gm] Now with [G] Marilla, tears and a [Gm]
friend, we will [C] be so [G] happy then
Up there [D] in the presence [G] of the [C] Lord [G] all the time
It was when I was young, [C] I began [G] to think upon my conditions as a sinner, [Gm] [D] unsafe, oh [F#] yes
[G] But I made it up in my mind, while I [C] had sufficient [G]
time, that I would bow down [D] on my knees, [C] Lord and pray
[G]
I told him I've [Em] already [Gm] started out [C] to find a [Gm] better [G]
home
I'm going where no [Gm] sickness [G] and no sorrow, [D] obviously, the world will come
Now [Gm] with [G] Marilla, tears [Gm] and a [G] friend, we will [C] be so [G] happy then
Up [Gm] there in [D] the presence [Bm] [C] of the Lord [G] all the time
Listen, oh Satan tried to get [Gm] [C] me to live a [G] hypocrite
He said it would be alright if I live a [D] worldly farm, oh yes
He told [G] me that time have changed the way we live [C] in a modern and a [G] lighted day
He told me just to do whatever [D] I please, it [C] ain't no [G] harm
[Gm] But I told him I've [G] already [Gm] started out [C] to find a [G] better home
I'm going where no sickness and no sorrow, [D] obviously, oh the world will come
Now [G] with Marilla, tears and [Gm] a friend, [G] we [C] will be so [G] happy then
[Gm] Up there in [D] the presence of [C] the Lord all [G] the time
I tried it for a while, [C] trying to keep up with [G] every style
I was trying to get a crown without [D] a cross, oh yes
I [G] soon found out that wouldn't [Gm] do, [G] oh [C] for the word of God [G] is true
And unless I live [D] upright, my [A#] [C] soul will be lost
[G]
And I told him I've already started out [C] to find a better [G] home
I'm going where no sickness and no sorrow, [D] obviously, oh the world will come
Now [G] with Marilla, tears and [Gm] a friend, [G] we [C] will be so happy [G] then
[Gm] Up there [D] in the presence [C] of the Lord [G] all the time
[E] [C] [G]
