F#                 F#7                         
Some glad morning, when this life is over  
B        F#       
I'll fly away  
F#                                     
to my home on God's celestial shore  
C#        F#      
I'll fly away  
 
F#             F#7            
I'll fly away, oh, glory  
B        F#       
I'll fly away  
F#                                    
when I die, hallelujah, by and by  
F#   C#       F#  
I'll fly away  
 
 
 
 
just a few more weary days and then  
 
I'll fly away  
 
to a land where joys will never end  
 
I'll fly away 
 
  
Chorus 
 
 
For capo on 2
