G          C/G       G          C/G             
When I was a boy / My grace was near
   G              C/G     G     C/G
Over time, it disappeared
   G            C/G       G             C/G
Well, I'm on my way / Don't you cry for me
 G              C/G             G
It was good to say the least

C                        G                   Bm                 Em
Well, the door is almost closed / And we're staring through the darkness
  Am                    G              Am                D7
Well, the war is almost won / Can you hear the kingdom come
C                     G            Bm              Em
As the day begins to fade / And we turn the final page
      Am                G       C/G     G       C/G
I am on my way back home

  G          C/G       G          C/G   
Well, I gave my best / Or so it seemed
   G          C/G          G          C/G   
And with God I have made peace
    G          C/G            G          C/G   
When you're old and grey / Will you think of me
    G          C/G       G          
With a smile upon your face

[Chorus]
C                        G                   Bm                 Em
Well, the door is almost closed / And we're staring through the darkness
  Am                    G              Am                D7
Well, the war is almost won / Can you hear the kingdom come
C                     G            Bm              Em
As the day begins to fade / And we turn the final page
      Am                D7
I am on my way back home
                                            G
Strange how something so sweet can become a lie
Am                            G
I never had the chance to say good night

[Chorus]
C                        G                   Bm                 Em
Well, the door is almost closed / And we're staring through the darkness
  Am                    G              Am                D7
Well, the war is almost won / Can you hear the kingdom come
C                     G            Bm              Em
As the day begins to fade / And we turn the final page
      Am                G       C/G
I am on my way back home
        Am              G       C/G 
Yes, I'm on my way back home

G       C/G     G       C/G     G
