_ [F#] One Sunday morning after [C#] church, the preacher was shaking hands.
A [D#m] little boy walked up and said,
Can I [B] please talk to your preacher man? _
[F#] He said, My daddy left my mama and me, [C#] and it's been a couple years.
[D#m] And my mama's boyfriend don't like me much, [B] especially after a couple of beers. _
_ [F#] Sometimes when he hits me, [C#] I close my eyes real tight,
[D#m] And I wish that place you always talk about [B] was real with all my might.
Is heaven [F#] _ real? _ _ _ _
_ [C#] I can't wait to go there, _ [D#m] I can't wait to know how heaven [B] _ _ _ _ feels.
Is there [F#] a _ place _ _ _ [C#] where there's no more pain or dying, _
_ [D#m] No more need for crying,
I [B] can't wait, is heaven a [F#] real place? _ _ _ _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D#m] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#] Well the preacher man didn't know what to say,
[C#] And before the little boy turned and walked away,
[D#m] The preacher said, Son, would you like [B] to pray?
Right _ _ _
_ [F#] _ there the little boy hit his knees,
[C#] And he cried out, Lord, help me please,
[D#m] Cause I don't know how much more pain I [B] can take. _ _ _ _
[F#] And he looked up with him tears in his eyes,
[C#] And he said, Preacher man, I don't want to die,
[D#m] But I just want to know if there's a better [B] _ _ _ place.
Is heaven [F#] _ _ real? _ _ _
_ [C#] I can't wait to go there, _ [D#m] I can't wait to know how heaven [B] _ _ _ feels.
Is there [F#] a _ _ _ _ place [C#] where there's no more pain or dying, _
_ [D#m] No more need for crying,
I [B] can't _ _ wait, is heaven a [F#] real place?
Later on past midnight, [C#] the preacher man got a call,
Little [D#m] boy's in the hospital doing bad,
And her mama's [B] boyfriend's running from the law. _
[F#] When the preacher walked in the boy's hospital room,
[C#] The little boy whispered, Can you see him too?
[D#m] There's an angel standing right beside you, preacher [B] man.
_ _ Now I know [F#] heaven's _ _ _ _ real,
[C#] I can't wait to get there, _
_ [D#m] I can't wait to know how heaven [B] feels.
_ I'm going to [F#] a _ _ place _ where [C#] there's no more pain or _ _ _ [D#m] dying,
Preacher man, why are you crying?
Cause I [B] _ _ _ can't wait, is heaven a real [F#] _ place? _ _ _
Now [C#] I _ _ know heaven's a [D#m] real place, _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ _ heaven's a real place.
