[G] [Em] [D]
If I could [E] only fly, [D] I'd go up [G] and look down from the sky
So [Am] I could see the [D] bigger picture
[G] And Lord, if I could sit [Em] with you at [D] your feet
[G] For an hour or two
I'm [Am] sure I'd ask too [D] many questions
Cause there's [C] so [G] much [D] going on [G] down here
[Dm] That I must confess I just [G] don't [C] understand
I don't [D] understand
But [G] I have prayed
And at your feet my whole [D] life has [Bm] been laid
[G] So I won't worry, I [D] won't [Em] be afraid
Cause my [Cm] soul is resting on your [G] highway
So let the road ahead become [Bm] unclear
[G] For I am yours, so [D] what have [E] I to [Em]
fear
[G] If my soul is [Cm] resting on your [G] highway
Your [Eb]
[D] highway
[G] Teach me to trust you
[Eb] Your
[D] highways [G] are [Am] not [G] like mine
Your [Em]
[Bm] highways are the ways of a father
[Bb] To his children and [Am] his love
[D] [G] So let it rain
And if my eyes grow dim with [Bm] tears of pain
This [C] hope I [D] have will not be [Em] washed [G] away
[Em] Cause my soul is [Cm] resting on your [G] highway
Your [Bm]
[C] [D] [Em]
[C] [Cm] [G]
[Eb] [D] highway
[G] Teach me to trust you
[Gm] Your [D] highways [G] are not like mine
[Em] [Bm]
[C] [Bb] To his children and [D] his love
Someday [G] I [E] will [D] fly
And maybe then you [Gm] will take me [C] aside
[G] And [A] show me the bigger [D] picture
[G] But until I'm [Em] with you I'll [D] be here
[G] With a heart [C] that is true
[G] And [A] a soul that's [D] resting on your [G] highway Your highway
[Em] [G] Resting on your highway Your highway
[B] [Ab]
