Intro: Esus4 E 

verse 1 
             E       E/G#            Asus2  E 
If I should close my eyes, that my soul can see, 
                E                           B 
And there's a place at the table that you saved for me. 
           E      E/G#       Asus2   A/C# 
So many thousand miles over land and sea, 
   Asus2   E              Asus2     E 
I hope to dare, that you hear my prayer, 
       Asus2  B     Esus4 
And somehow I'll be there. 


verse 2 
             E       E/G#          Asus2      E 
It's but a concrete floor where my head will lay, 
                E                            B 
And though the walls of this prison are as cold as clay. 
                 E      E/G#           Asus2  A/C# 
But there's a shaft of light where I count my days, 
    Asus2    E          Asus2   E 
So don't despair of the empty chair, 
       Asus2  B      Esus4 
And somehow I'll be there. 

Bridge 
      C#m        A           E 
Some days I'm strong, some days I'm weak,  
      C#m         A           E 
And days I'm so broken I can barely speak, 
             C#m       A               E 
There’s a place in my head where my thoughts still roam, 
 F#m                     B 
Where somehow I've come home. 

verse 3 
               E    E/G#            Asus2    E 
And when the Winter comes and the trees lie bare, 
               E                            B 
And you just stare out the window in the darkness there. 
             E    E/G#             Asus2      A/C# 
Well I was always late for every meal you'll swear, 
      Asus2   E            Asus2  E 
But keep my place and the empty chair, 
     Asus2  B       C#m 
And somehow I'll be there, 
     Asus2    B     Esus4 
And somehow I'll be there.
