Outskirts Of Heaven Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][F]

[Verse 1]
[C]My grandpa taught me
about [F]buck knifes and shot guns
How to [C]cast an old Zebco
And how to [G]work a stick shift
He [C]taught me the bible
about [F]all twelve disciples
And he [C]made sure that I know
there's [G]life after this
With [Dm]pearly gates and [Em]streets of gold
He said if I [F]just believe
that's [G]where I'll [G]go

[Chorus 1]
Lord when I [C]die I wanna [F]live
On the outskirts of [C]Heaven[F]
Where there's dirt roads for [C]miles
Hay in the [F]fields
and fish in the [G]river
Where there's [Am]dogwood trees
and honey bees
And [G]blue skies and green grass for[F]ever
Lord when I [C]die,
I wanna [F]live on the outskirts of [C]Heaven[F]

[Verse 2]
Now it [C]says in the King James
in the [F]Almighty's kingdom
He [C]mentions a mansion
that he's [G]built just for me
Now [C]I'd gladly trade it
for a [F]farm house with acreage
And a [C]back yard that's shaded
and a [G]squeaky front porch swing
That's where I wanna hang my wings

[Chorus 2]
When I [C]die I wanna [F]live
On the outskirts of [C]Heaven[F]
Where there's dirt roads for [C]miles
Hay in the [F]fields
and fish in the [G]river
Where there's [Am]dogwood trees
and honey bees
And [G]blue skies and green grass for[F]ever
So Lord when I [C]die,
I wanna [F]live on the outskirts of [C]Heaven
[C][Bb]

[Interlude 1]
[F][F]
[G][G]
Yeah, the [E]good

[Outro 1]
[Am]Lord knows me
He knows I need [G]blue skies
and green grass for[F]ever
Lord when I [C]die,
I wanna [F]live on the outskirts of [C]Heaven[F]
Yeah, when I [C]die I wanna [F]live
on the outskirts of [C]Heaven
