Lyrics

[Verse 1]
G                Em7            Cadd9
 There is a place   I long to go
              G                                  D/F#
Where the pain gets turned away right at the door
           Em7                 Cadd9
No one gets   sick, no one gets     old
            G
No more fightin',
                        D/F#
no more strivin' anymore
                Em7                    Cadd9
'Cause I'm on a train that's bound for glory
                G              D/F#
Got friends and family waitin' for me
              Em7            Cadd9
And they're already singin', "Holy"
         G                             D/F#
Singin', "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord"

[Chorus]
        Em7     Cadd9 G
One day I  will fly  away
            Em7       Cadd9    G
Trade these bones for robes of grace
                            Em7
And I just can't shake this feeling in my soul
Cadd9
Heaven is my home
     G          D/F#      Em7
This world is a temporary place
                 Cadd9               D/F#
I'll leave it one     day out of the grave
          Em7 Cadd9 G
I'll fly away
          Em7 Cadd9 G
I'll fly away

[Verse 2]
              Em7              Cadd9
There is a place I long to know
            G                                 D/F#
Where the heroes of the faith walk streets of gold
             Em7
And from that   place,
              Cadd9
I'll join the song
            G                     D/F#
Singin', "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord"

[Chorus]
        Em7     Cadd9 G
One day I  will fly  away
            Em7       Cadd9    G
Trade these bones for robes of grace
                            Em7
And I just can't shake this feeling in my soul
Cadd9
Heaven is my home
     G          D/F#      Em7
This world is a temporary place
                 Cadd9               D/F#
I'll leave it one     day out of the grave
          Em7 Cadd9 G
I'll fly away
          Em7 Cadd9 G
I'll fly away

[Verse 3]
         Em7                    Cadd9
I'm on a train that's bound for glory
                G              D/F#
Got friends and family waitin' for me
              Em7            Cadd9
And they're already singin', "Holy"
            G                          D/F#
Singin', "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord"

[Chorus]
        Em7     Cadd9 G
One day I  will fly  away
            Em7       Cadd9    G
Trade these bones for robes of grace
                            Em7
And I just can't shake this feeling in my soul
    Cadd9
And heaven is my home
     G          D/F#      Em7
This world is a temporary place
                 Cadd9               D/F#
I'll leave it one     day out of the grave
          Em7 Cadd9 G
I'll fly away
          Em7 Cadd9 G
I'll fly away
