Andrew Peterson – Maybe Next Year (Guitar)

  A
I made my way to the western wall

       F#m                                           C#m B
As the sun went down, I could hear them call for You

        A
And the words I heard in the ancient song

         F#m                                       C#m B
Were the same as the ones I've sung so long to You

A                           F#m                              C#m B
And when I touched the wall, the veil, it never felt so thin

       A
'Cause You are the Rock and the Cornerstone

F#m
You are the temple of flesh and bone

    C#m                      B             A
And You are the door and the way back home again

        E                              A                B
To that city that we long for, that we feel so far away

          E                        A     B
Where the dawn will drive away our tears

          C#m               B               A
And we'll meet in the New Jerusalem someday

               E                 A
Maybe next year, na-na-naa, na-na

B              E                 A B
Maybe next year, na-na-naa, na-na

       A
At the western wall, I bowed my head

  F#m                                 C#m B
I knew that every word I read was true

       A
As the prophet spoke from another age

        F#m                                      C#m B
And the song rose up from the sacred page to You

A                       F#m                        C#m B
And I never felt so near, I never felt so far away

    A
But You tore the curtain and shook the ground

    F#m
The saints woke up and they walked around

  C#m            B                 A
And resurrection came to town that day

             E                              A             B
Like in that city that we long for, that we feel so far away

          E                             A B
Where the dawn will drive away our tears

          C#m                B          A
And we'll meet in the New Jerusalem someday

               E                  A
Maybe next year, la-la-laa, la-la

A
This is the place where Abraham

    F#m                                         C#m B
Cut loose the boy and he killed the ram instead

    A
And this is the place where Jesus said

          F#m                                                  C#m B
You could tear down the temple and He'd raise it from the dead

A                     F#m                            C#m B
You never felt so real, I never felt so close to You

        A
So I'll weep and dance at the western wall

    F#m                                          C#m
And sing of the way You're making all things new

           B              A               F#m                C#m B
'Cause the kingdom's here, but I know the kingdom's moving in

   A                                F#m
So maybe I'll meet You here next year

                    F#m                    A
In the New Jerusalem, in the New Jerusalem

        E                              A                B
In that city that we long for, that we feel so far away

          E                             A B
Where the dawn will drive away our tears

          C#m               B           A
And we'll meet in the New Jerusalem someday

F#m            E                  A
Maybe next year, la-la-laa, la-la

B              E
Maybe next year, la-la-laa, la-la

A                B         C#m     E            A
Next year in the New Jerusalem, la-la-laa, la-la

     F#m                   E
Next year in the New Jerusalem

                    A B
Next year, next year

                           E
Next year in the New Jerusalem

                   A
Next year, next year

                 B
Next year in the New Jerusalem

C#m        B
Next year, next year
