A Place Called Earth

Bm              A       G
Oh, the wars we haven't won
G                   F#m7   Em
Oh, the songs we've left unsung
Em                F#m7    G
Oh, the dreams we haven't seen
    F#m7  G
The borderlines

            Bm                     A         G
And here we are between all of our hopes and fear
G                  F#m7   Em
Chasing down these stolen years
Em               F#m7    G
Reaching out for hands unseen
       F#m7  G          F#m7  G
On the borderlines, the borderlines

[Chorus]
          Bm                   A            Bm
Oh, how I long for heaven in a place called earth
            Bm                     F#m7       Em
Where every son and daughter would know their worth
              Em                   A          D
Where all the streets resound with thunderous joy
         D                    A            Bm
Oh how I long for heaven in a place called earth

[Verse 2]
Bm               A      G
Jesus name still on her tongue
G                F#m7   Em
Questions buried in her lungs:
Em             F#m7   G
“Oh my father, why my son?”
       F#m7  G          F#m7  G
on the borderlines, the borderlines

[Chorus]
          Bm                   A            Bm
Oh, how I long for heaven in a place called earth
            Bm                     F#m7       Em
Where every son and daughter would know their worth
              Em                   A          D
Where all the streets resound with thunderous joy
         D                    A            Bm
Oh how I long for heaven in a place called earth

[Verse 3]
        Bm                   A        G
I had a dream that I finally saw your face
G              F#m7    Em
Dancing in the arms of grace
Em                  F#m7    G
Dancing through the joy and pain
       F#m7  G          F#m7  G
On the borderlines, the borderlines

[Chorus]
          Bm                   A            Bm
Oh, how I long for heaven in a place called earth
            Bm                     F#m7       Em
Where every son and daughter would know their worth
              Em                   A          D
Where all the streets resound with thunderous joy
         D                    A            Bm (hold)
Oh how I long for heaven in a place called earth
