Verse

       D                A
I am a pilgrim, passing thru
         G                                   D
And I've wandered thru the world and all its beauty
        D               A
I don't know, what I'll find
       G                             A      [ Asus4 A ]
When I cross that river to the other side
        Em               A                   Gmaj7
But the Good Book said believer when you get there
   G                  D             A
In Heaven’s light old memories will fade
           D           A
And I will see, by His grace
       G    A    D
In the last best place

Verse

            D               A
It won't be easy, to say goodbye
   G                                D
To everyone I've known here in this life
            D                A
But when He calls me, I will go
             G                               A      [ Asus4 A ]
And leave my brothers and dear sisters here below
       Em             A                Gmaj7
All at once I'll be rejoicing with the angels
    G              Asus4            A
And resting in the promise that someday
           D             A
We'll meet again face to face
       G    A   | Bm A | G |

Verse

           D                A
Some folks dream of growing old
   G                                   D
Contented with their treasures in some mansion
          D            A
There are those, weary souls
    G                               A      [ A Bbdim ]
Who search in vain to satisfy their passion
Bm                 A                  G
Some can't wait to ride that train to glory
    G             D             A
And see St. Peter at the pearly gates
        D           A
But for me, God's embrace
       G    Bbdim | Bm A | G |
Is the last best   place
       D           A
I will sing by His grace
       G    A    |  D   |  D  |
In the last best place  (break)
