Key: D

Verse I:

            D                    A/C^#

As the world moves around me

               B^bm            C/D

With its trouble and strife

               G                        D/F^#

And the pressure gets to heavy

        E⁷                   A⁷

As I seek a better life

                 D                A/C^#

There’s a hand I can cling to

    D⁷             G

Assurance I know

       D           A⁷              D

Oh, I have a place I can go

Chorus:

                 G     C G                              C     G

When the road is rough, and the way gets tough

               D

It seems so hard to bear

                 G     C  G                   C    G

There’s a special place, and by His grace

   E⁷                              A⁷

I know He’ll meet me there

              D              A/C^#

There’s sweet consolation

                   D⁷/C                G

Where the healing waters flow

       D           A⁷               D

Oh, I have a place I can go

Verse II:

              D                    A/C^#

It could be while I’m working

      B^bm                     C/D

Or driving down the road

    G                     D/F^#

It doesn’t really matter

       E⁷                                  A⁷

An honest prayer is always heard

       D                  A/C^#

My burdens are lifted

         D⁷                 G

And peace fills my soul

        D           A⁷              D

Oh, I have a place I can go
