Tears Will Never Stain The Streets Of That City

C G7 C F/G


[Verse 1]

           C             F               F/C     C
If I could count all the tears that have fal  -  len
                               G7
It would seem like an ocean to me
          C            F                F/C   C
And if my heart were a window you could see   through
                     G7              C
All the pain and the scars you would see


[Chorus]

                 C9        F               C
Tears will never stain the streets of that city
                                  G7
No wreaths of death on my mansion door
C                C9        F                 C
Teardrops aren't welcome beyond the gates of glory
                           G7       C        F/G
Cause the heart will never break anymore


[Verse 2]

          C             F           C
Well I've never met one man without sorrow
                               G7
Never looked into eyes with no pain
              C          F            F/C   C
But there's a land where death has no vic - tory
                         G7              C
And songs of joy are the only songs they sing


[Chorus]

C                Bb        F               C
Tears will never stain the streets of that city
                                  G7
No wreaths of death on my mansion door
C                C9        F                 C
Teardrops aren't welcome beyond the gates of glory
                           G7       C        F/G
Cause the heart will never break anymore


[Verse 3]

    C              F         F/C   C
I'd questioned the loss of a loved one,
                             G7
The grave seems so final and cold,
    C              F                        C
Oh, but we'll meet again,where death has no victory,
                        G7         C
In a land where we will never grow old


[Chorus]

C                Bb        F               C
Tears will never stain the streets of that city
                                  G7
No wreaths of death on my mansion door
C                C9        F                 C
Teardrops aren't welcome beyond the gates of glory
                           G7       C
Cause the heart will never break anymore
