Chords for Sherrie Austin - Streets Of Heaven Lyrics

_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Hello [Bb] God, [Eb] it's me again, [Bb] 2am, [Abm] room [Bb] 304
_ Visited hours [Eb] are over, [Abm] time for our bedside [Bb] tug-of-war
This sleeping child [Eb] between us [Ab] may not make it through the [Bb] night
I'm fighting back [Eb] the tears, [Ab] she fights for her [Gm]
[Eb] life
[Bb] _ [Eb] Well, it must be kinda [Ab] crowded [Bb] on the streets [Eb] of heaven
[Cm] So tell me, [Ab] what do you need [Bb] her for?
[Eb] _ [Bb] [Eb] Don't you know [Ab] one day she'll be [Bb] your little girl [Eb] forever?
But [Cm] right now [Ab] I need her so [Bb] much more
[Eb] [Bb] She's much [Cm] too young to be on her own, [Ab] barely just turned [Eb] seven
So who will hold [Ab] her hand when [Db] she crosses [Bb] the streets [Eb] of heaven?
Tell [Bb] me God, do you [Eb] remember [Ab] the wishes that she [Bb] made?
She blew out [Eb] the candles [Ab] on her last birthday [Bb] cake
She wants to ride [Eb] a pony [Ab] when she's big [Bb] enough
She wants to marry [Eb] her daddy [Ab] when she's all [Eb] grown up
Well, it must be kinda [Ab] crowded [Bb] on the streets [Eb] of heaven
[Cm] So tell me, [Ab] what do you need [Bb] her for?
[Eb] _ [Bb] [Eb] Don't you know [Ab] one day she'll be [Bb] your little girl [Eb] forever?
But [Cm] right now [Ab] I need her so [Bb] much more
[Eb] [Bb] She's much [Cm] too young to be on her own, [Ab] barely just turned seven
[Eb] So who will hold [Ab] her hand when [Db] she crosses [Bb] the streets [Ab] of heaven?
[Bb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb]
Lord, don't [Bb] you know [Eb] she's my angel?
[Ab] You've got plenty of your [Bb] own
And I know you'll hold [Eb] a place for her, but [Ab] she's [Eb] already got a [Bb] home
Well, I don't know if [Eb] you're listening, but [Ab] praying's all that's left [Bb] to do
So I ask [Eb] you, Lord, have mercy, [Ab] you lost a son [Bb] once too
_ [Eb] And it must be kinda [Ab] crowded [Bb] on the streets [Eb] of heaven
[Cm] So tell me, [Ab] what do you [Bb] need her for?
_ [Eb] _ [Bb] [Eb] Don't you know [Ab] one day she'll be [Bb] your little girl [Eb] forever?
But right [Cm] now I [Ab] need her so [Bb] much more
Lord, I [Cm] know once you've made up your mind, [Ab] there's no use in begging
[Bb] So [Cm] if you take [Ab] her with you today, [Eb] will you make sure [Ab] she loves both ways?
Would [Eb] you hold [Ab] her hand when [Db] she crosses [Bb] the streets [Ab] of heaven?
The streets of [Eb] heaven
