_ If I should close my _ _ eyes, let my [Cm] soul [Eb] can see,
_ _ _ There's a place at the table _ that you save for [Ab] _ me, _ _
[Eb] So many thousand _ miles _ [Ab] over land [Eb] and [Cm]
sea,
_ _ [Ab] I hope to _
[Eb] dare _ that [Ab] you hear my [Eb] _ prayer,
_ _ [Ab] And somehow [Eb] _ [Bb] _ I'll [Eb] be _ there, _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ This butter _ concrete _ floor _ _ [Ab] where my head will [Eb] _
lay,
_ _ Though the walls of this prison are as cold _
[Ab] as clay,
_ [Eb] _ But there's a shaft of light _ _ _ where [Ab] I count [Eb] my _ _ days,
[Ab] So don't [Eb] despair _ _ of [Ab] the empty _ _
[Eb] chair,
_ _ _ [Ab] And [Eb] somehow _ _ I'll be there,
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Some days I'm [Ab] strong, _ some [Eb] days I'm weak,
_ _ _ _ Days I'm [Ab] so broken I can [Eb] barely speak,
_ There's _ [Ab] a place in my head _ [Eb] where my thoughts still roam, _ _
[F] _ But somehow _ I've come [Bb] home, _ _ _ _
[Eb] And when the winter _ _ _ comes [Ab] and the trees [Eb]
lie _ bare,
_ And you just stare out the window in the darkness _ [F] _ there, _ _
[Eb] Well I was always _ late _ _ for [Ab] every [Eb] meal you'd swear,
_ _ _ [Ab] But keep my [Eb] place _ in _
[Ab] the empty [Eb] _ chair, _ _
_ _ [Ab] And somehow [Bb] _ _
[Cm] I'll be _ there, _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ Somehow _ _ _ I'll be _ there. _ _
