Zion's Hill

Keith Whitley

Key of C · Chords: I IV V

Verse 1

C                F           C
There awaits for me a glad tomorrow
Where the gates of pearl swing open wide
                                    F
And when I have passed this vale of sorrow
       C     G7           C
I will caper on the other side

Verse 2

    F                       C
Someday beyond the reach of mortal sin
                                      G7
Someday God only knows just where and when
    C                          F         C
The wheels of mortal life will all stand still
                           G7     C
And I shall go to dwell on Zion's hill

Verse 3

            F                    C
Someday the storm clouds will be lifted
Beyond the shadows of the tomb
                                 F
And with all the bells of heaven ringing
        C      G7                 C
And the angels singing Home Sweet Home

Verse 4

    F                       C
Someday beyond the reach of mortal sin
                                      G7
Someday God only knows just where and when
    C                          F         C
The wheels of mortal life will all stand still
                           G7     C
And I shall go to dwell on Zion's hill
