The Empty Chair

Esus4 E 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. 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. 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. 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.
