Your Long Journey

Intro : D     A     D     G     D

1.
       D        A        D                  G        D
God's given us years of happiness here, now we must part
     D     A       D
And as the angels come and call for you
     A         D       G      D
The pains of grief tug at my heart


        Chorus  (2x)
               A            D
        Oh my darling,  my darling
                   A            D         G        D
        my heart breaks as you take your long journey


2.
        D                      A         D            G      D
Oh the days will be empty the nights so long without you my love
      D                 A       D
And when god calls for you I'm left alone
     A       D       G       D
but we will meet in heaven above


        Chorus
               A            D
        Oh my darling,  my darling
                   A            D         G        D
        my heart breaks as you take your long journey


(Here´s a solo by Bill Frisell while the chords are nearly the same as in the chorus.)

      D                    A     D            G        D
Fond memories of dear and happy ways that on earth we trod
      D                  A         D
And when I come we will walk hand in hand
   A        D            G         D
As one in heaven in the family of god


        Chorus  (2x)
               A            D
        Oh my darling,  my darling
                   A            D         G        D
        my heart breaks as you take your long journey
