G
By the way the land is layin'

        C
I think I'd be safe in sayin'

     G                           D7  A7 D7
That over the next hill we'll be home

       G
It's a straight and narrow highway

   C
No detours and no byways

    G    C        G    D7       G
And over the next hill we'll be home


         C
From the prophets I've been hearin'

        G
I would say the end is nearin'

                                 D7    A7 D7
For I see familiar landmarks all along 

       G
By the dreams that I've been dreamin'

           C
There will come a great redeemin'

    G    C        G    D7       G
And over the next hill we'll be home


       G
By the turn the tide is takin'

        C
I would say there's no mistakin'

     G                           D7   A7 D7
That over the next hill we'll be home

          G
There's a place that we are nearin'

     C
That so many have been fearin'

    G    C        G    D7       G
And over the next hill we'll be home


        C
When we get there we're all hopin'

           G
That we'll find the gate is open

                                         D7    A7 D7
And there'll be a refuge from the comin' storm

        G
For the ways been long and weary

       C
But at last the end is nearin'

    G    C        G    D7       G
And over the next hill we'll be home
