Homesick - MercyMe		

(Capo 3 for the recorded key)

Intro: D9  G  A  G   D9  Bm  G

Verse 1:
       D9                
You're in a better place, 
               G
I've heard a thousand times
        D9                   
And at least a thousand times 
         G
I've rejoiced for you
         C9                   
But the reason why I'm broken, 
      A
the reason why I cry
   D/F#  G          A               D9  D
Is how long must I wait to be with you

Chorus:
D9                    G
  I close my eyes and I see your face
    A                      
If home's where my heart is 
      D            D/C#
then I'm out of place
                Bm              
Lord, won't you give me strength 
     A                   G
to make it through somehow
      A               G             D
I've never been more homesick than now

Musical Interlude: D9  G  A  G

Verse 2:
D9          
Help me Lord 
                      G
cause I don't understand your ways
     D9                           G
The reason why, I wonder if I'll ever know
      C9                   
But, even if you showed me, 
      A
the hurt would be the same
      D/F#  G       
Cause I'm still here 
          A        D9  D
so far away from home

Repeat Chorus:

Bridge:
    A                        G
In Christ, there are no goodbyes
        A                   G
And in Christ, there is no end
         A             
So I'll hold onto Jesus 
      Bm
with all that I have
       Em                Asus4
To see you again, to see you again

Final Chorus:
D9                  G
I close my eyes and I see your face
    Bm                     
If home's where my heart is 
       A          G
then I'm out of place
                D/F#            
Lord, won't you give me strength 
                         G
to make it through somehow
           A              
Won't you give me strength 
                         G
to make it through somehow
                D/F#            
Lord, won't you give me strength 
                         G
to make it through somehow
      A               G             D9
I've never been more homesick than now
