Am 
I work so hard, nearly every day 
         Em                Am 
Break my back to put money away 
             Dm                        G 
But just you wait I'm gonna leave this place 
(no chord)    Am 
Before I die 

Am 
There is a place, in my love's arms 
         Em                Am 
Keeps me safe and far from harm 
                Dm                         G 
And its in that place I'm gonna spend some time 
(no chord)             Am 
Before I die 

Am 
You say you're worried about your dirty past 
          Em                    Am 
I say its harder always looking back 
              Dm                    G 
You got to be free from all of that mess 
(N.C.)         Am 
Before you die 

Am 
I have joy, and I have peace 
            Em                Am 
Forget this world and all its greed 
          Dm          G 
I left it all to be redeemed 
(N.C)         Am 
Before I die 

Am 
I work so hard, nearly every day 
         Em                Am 
Break my back to put money away 
             Dm                        G 
But just you wait I'm gonna leave this place 
(no chord)    Am 
Before I die 

Am 
Won't you Take me home; won't you take me there 
            Em                 Am  
Gave you my burdens and all my cares 
            Dm 
Oh precious savior 
                 G 
Will you take my soul 
(N.C)           Am 
When I die 

Am 
I work so hard, nearly every day 
         Em                Am 
Break my back to put money away 
             Dm                        G 
But just you wait I'm gonna leave this place 
(no chord)    Am 
Before I die
