[Intro] Em7 D/F# Em/G D/A
A     G       D/F#    Em7   Dadd9
Mmmm
[Verse 1]
   D         D7    G       D
My life goes on in endless song

                   Asus4  A
Above earth's lamentations,

  D              D7     G       D
I hear the real, though far-off hymn

Bm           A      D    G   D
That hails a new creation.
[Verse 2]
        D       D7     G       D
Through all the tumult and the strife

                     Asus4 A
I hear it's music ringing,

   D         D7   G     D
It sounds an echo in my soul.

Bm        A         D      G  D
How can I keep from singing?
[Verse 3]
A     D          D7      G      D
While though the tempest loudly roars,

                     Asus4 A
I hear the truth, it liveth.

    D          D7        G        D
And though the darkness 'round me close,

Bm    A               D     G  D
Songs in the night it giveth.
[Bridge]
A  D     G   D     N.C. D G    D
No storm can shake my   inmost calm,

N.C.  D  G    D    N.C. D       G   D
While to that rock I'm  clinging.

N.C.  D    G  D    N.C. D      G   D
Since love is lord of   heaven and earth

N.C. Bm    A         D      G   D
How  can I keep from singing?
[Verse 4]
     D       D7      G         D
When tyrants tremble sick with fear

                           Asus4   A
And hear their death knell ringing,

     D       D7           G       D
When friends rejoice both far and near

Bm        A         D      G   D
How can I keep from singing?
[Instrumental] D D7 G D Asus4 A D D7 G D Bm A D G D D7 G D Asus4 A D D7 G D Bm A D G D [Bridge]
A  D     G   D     N.C. D G    D
No storm can shake my   inmost calm,

N.C.  D  G    D    N.C. D       G   D
While to that rock I'm  clinging.

N.C.  D    G  D    N.C. D      G   D
Since love is lord of   heaven and earth

N.C. Bm    A         D      G   D
How  can I keep from singing?
[Verse 5]
   D         D7    G       D
My life goes on in endless song

                   Asus4  A
Above earth's lamentations,

  D        D7           G       D
I hear the real, though far-off hymn

Bm        A         D      G   D
How can I keep from singing?

Bm        A         D      G   D
How can I keep from singing?

   Bm        A         G      G    D
Oh how can I keep from singing     Oooh
