Verse 1:
(G)I guess we (Em)will have tears in (D)Heaven, (Bm)
(Em)Thinking of (G)things we failed to (C)do, (D)
(G)And of the (Em)sharp words roughly (D)spoken in our (Bm)haste
(Em)To our dear (G)loved ones here
(C)Who we'll wish that (D)we'd been kinder (G)to.

Chorus 1:
(G)Though tears may fall in that (D)day
And Jesus will wipe them (G)away,
Why should we (Em)wait (Cmaj7)'til Heaven to (D)say,
"I'm (G)sorry!"

(C)-(G)-(D)-(G) [Two times]

Verse 2:
(G)I want to (Em)ask you to for(D)give me, (Bm)
(Em)I wouldn't (G)hurt you for the (C)world! (D)
(G)My foolish (Em)pride kept me from (D)saying, "I was (Bm)wrong!"
(Em)We're learning (G)as we live.
(C)Will you for(D)give my unkind (G)words?

Chorus 2:
I (G)just want to open my (D)heart
So this doesn't keep us (G)apart.
Why should I (Em)wait (Cmaj7)'til Heaven to (D)say,
"I'm (G)sorry!"

(C)-(G)-(D)-(G)-(C)-(G)-(D)

Bridge:
(D)Sometimes we (Em)say things
(D)We don't mean to (C)say.
(G)It's so sad that (Em)we can hurt
The (D)ones we love this way!

Verse 3:
[Spoken Dad]:
(G)-(Em)I guess we will have a (D)few tears
When we get There. (Bm)
(Em)We'll be (G)sorry for those cross words (C)then,
That we (D)spoke so quickly,
(G)So gruffly and (Em)roughly and impatiently. (D)-(Bm)
(Em)I'm sorry I (G)spoke to you that way! (C)
(D)Please forgive me! (G)
