Rich Mullins - Elijah

^G The Jordan is waiting^Em7 for me to cross through ^Csus2 My heart is agin'^Am7 I can ^Dsustell ^{D G} So Lord I'm asking for one last^Em7 favor from You Here's my ^Csus2 heart take^Am7 it where You will ^Dsus

^G This life has shown me how we're ^Em7mend-ed and how we're torn ^Csus2 How it's okay to be lone^Am7- ly as long as you'r^Dsuse free^{D G}Sometimes my ground was stony And sometimes^Em7 covered up with thorns And only ^Csus2 You could make it ^Am7 what it had to be ^Dsus And now that it's done

^Am7 If they dressed me like a^Gmaj7/B pau- per Or if they di^Cned me like a ^Gmaj7/Bprince ^Am7 If they lay me with my ^Gmaj7/B fa- thers Or if my ^Csus2 ash- es scatter on the ^D7suswind I don't care

B^Gut when I leave I want to ^Am7go out like^G/B E-li^C-jah ^{D Em7}With a whirlwind to fuel my ch^D/F#ar-i-ot ^Gof fir^C2e ^D/C And when I ^G/Blook back on the stars ^C It'll be like a ^G/Dcan- dlelight in ^B/D#Cen- tral Park ^{Em Asus A} And ^Cit won't break my hea^Dsusrt to say goodbye ^G

^GThere's people been friendly, but they^Em7'd never be your friends ^Csus2 Sometimes this has^Am7 bent me to the^Dsus ground^{D G}Now that this is all ending I want to hear some mu^Em7sic once again 'Cause it'^Csus2s the finest thing tha^Am7t I have ever foun^Dsusd

^GBut the Jordan is waiting Though I ain't never ^Em7seen the other side Still th^Csus2ey say you can't take ^Am7in the things you have^Dsus here ^{D G}So on the road to salvation I stick out my t^Em7humb and He gives me a ride And His m^Csus2usic is already falling on my^Am7 ears

^Am7There's people been ta^Gmaj7/Blking They say they're^C worried about^Gmaj7/B my soul Well, I'^Am7m here to tell you I'll ke^Gmaj7/Bep rocking 'Til I'm ^Csus2sure it's my time to^D7sus roll And when I do

B^Gut when I leave I want to ^Am7go out like^G/B E-li^C-jah ^{D Em7}With a whirlwind to fuel my ch^D/F#ar-i-ot ^Gof fir^C2e ^D/C And when I ^G/Blook back on the stars ^C It'll be like a ^G/Dcan- dlelight in ^B/D#Cen- tral Park ^{Em Asus A} And ^Cit won't break my hea^Dsusrt to say goodbye ^G

'^GCause when I leave I want to ^Am7go out like^G/B Elij^Cah ^{D Em7}With a whirlwind to fuel my ch^D/F#ariot ^Gof fire ^{C2 D/C} And when I ^G/Blook back on the stars ^C It'll be like a ^G/Dcandlelight in ^B/D#Central Park^{Em Asus A} And ^Cit won't break my heart^D7sus To say ^G2 goodbye Em9 C Dsus D [/ / / /][/ / / /][/ / / /] G2 Em9 C Dsus D [/ / / /][/ / / /][/ / / /][/ / / /] Repeat and fade: G2 Em7 C2 Dsus D [/ / / /][/ / / /][/ / / /][/ / / /]
