VERSE 1: E – Emaj7 – B - E
Today I heard a sterling man…
Said he’d “figured out his five year plan”
As he told his brother he was heading home
And he didn’t know the truth he spoke
Would, in a few minutes cause his wife to choke
As she heard of his death over the telephone
See, around the corner I heard his feet
As the car came to a halt and screeched…
The cab driver, he didn’t know what to do
Now I’m wondering about heading home
Cause in my head I know I’m not alone
The guy that died, he was thinking about his future too
PRE-CHROUS: E – A – E - A
I’m singing about how
I’m sinking in my doubt
I’m looking for truth now
Man, is there a way out?
CHORUS: E – Emaj7 – B - A
We have always been faithful
To plan our own way
Now we’ve got a whole human race full
Of pride on parade
VERSE 2:
Today I heard a homeless man
Said Jesus gave new life to him
And he couldn’t wait ‘til he was headed Home
And he didn’t know the truth he spoke
Plus my change would help him not be broke
He said, “keep it son, you know that I’m not alone
See, around the corner is where I sleep
And the good Lord keeps the shoes on my feet,
I’m a stranger, that’s just passing through…
I’m done wondering about heading home
Cause in my heart I know I’m not alone
The God that died, He was thinking about my future too”
PRE-CHROUS:
But you’re singing about how
You’re sinking in your doubt
You’re looking for truth now
Man, I know the way out…
FINAL CHORUS:
See, We have always been faithful
To plan our own way
Now we’ve got a whole human race full
Of pride on parade
And God, you know, I am grateful
Of how faithful you have been
But God, you know I am hateful
Won’t you save me from my sins?
