G 
This old world's no place for living 

Not enough cares and not enough giving 
          C                                 G 
Sometimes clouds of sin and sorrow hide the way 

But this life of stormy weather  

Ain't gonna be my home forever 
                D7           G 
Gonna be moving one of these days 

  
I'm gonna be movin'  movin' away 
         C                   G 
Gonna be movin' one of these days 

When I leave this life behind me 

Troubles and cares are never gonna find me 
                D7           G 
Gonna be movin' one of these days 


There won't be any time for cryin' 

No more sickness toil or dyin’ 
     C                            G 
Joy awaits me in that mansion far away 

When I rest from all my labor 

The Lord's gonna be my next door neighbor 
                D7           G 
Gonna be movin' one of these days 

I'm gonna be movin'  movin' away 
         C                   G 
Gonna be movin' one of these days 

When I leave this life behind me 

Troubles and cares are never gonna find me 
                D7           G 
Gonna be movin' one of these days
