D E F#m
E A D E F#m
Honey I thought you should know that I'm in a hurry
E A D E F#m
I've got to move up north, but it's just temporary
E A D E F#m
When I look at you I see your beauty
E A D F#m E
Now my baby boy he's gonna lose me
D A
But heavens not too far away
E F#m E
I know someday you'll visit
D A
And I didn't think I'd go this way
E
Can I please one more minute?
F#m E A
No honey I don't want to go
D E F#m
Please know that I have to
E A
Look how the cancer has grown
D E F#m
I think it's time I go home
E A D E F#m
I can still hear your voice, sounds just like it did
E A
And I can still feel your hand
D F#m E
When it touches my skin
D A
But heavens not too far away
E F#m E
I know someday you'll visit
D A
And I didn't think I'd go this way
E F#m E
Can I please have one more minute?
D A E F#m E
I gave you life now you gotta watch it leave my eyes
D A
But heavens not too far away
E
I know someday you'll visit
F#m D
As death rattles my cage
A E
I can hear their voices fading
F#m D
Each breath getting harder
A E
I can hear the tears coming from my daughter
F#m D
And to her older brother
A E
He's thinking back when he was younger
F#m D
When he had a healthy mother
A E
Who asked him to take care of his little brother
F#m D
And he's not really sure about life
A E
Or that how could any of this be right
F#m D
But I know my babies they will be fine
A E F#m E
'Cause they can talk to me anytime
D A
'Cause, Heavens not too far away
E F#m E
I know someday you'll visit
D A
I didn't think I'd go this way
E F#m E
Can I please have one more minute?
D A E F#m E
I gave you life now you gotta watch it leave my eyes
D A
But heavens not too far away
E F#m
I know someday you'll visit
E A D E F#m
Honey I thought you should know, that I'm in a hurry
E A
I've got a move up north
E A
But it's just temporary
