[Intro] G Cadd9 Em7 D [Chorus]
G          Cadd9    Em7         D      G
  Farther along we'll know all about it

         Cadd9    Em7          D   G
Farther along we'll understand why

               Cadd9   Em7            D     G
So cheer up my brothers, live in the sunshine

            Cadd9     Em7         D
We'll understand this, all by and by
[Verse 1]
              G
Tempted and tried, I wondered why

    Cadd9
The good man dies, the bad man thrives

    Em7                                D
And Jesus cries because he loves em both

                                    G
Were all cast-aways in need of ropes

                                     Cadd9
Hangin on by the last threads of our hope

                                   Em7
In a house of mirrors full of smoke

                         D
Confusing illusions I've seen

               G
Where did I go wrong, I sang along

    Cadd9
To every chorus of the song

         Em7                                  D
That the devil wrote like a piper at the gates

                                        G
Leading mice and men down to their fates

                                 Cadd9
But some will courageously escape

                                        Em7
The seductive voice with a heart of faith

                              D
While walkin that line back home

                 G
So much more to life than weve been told

    Cadd9
Its full of beauty that will unfold

    Em7                                   D
And shine like you struck gold my wayward son

                                   G
That deadweight burden weighs a ton

                                     Cadd9
Go down into the river and let it run

                                       Em7
And wash away all the things youve done

                D
Forgiveness alright
[Chorus]
G          Cadd9    Em7         D      G
  Farther along we'll know all about it

         Cadd9    Em7          D   G
Farther along we'll understand why

               Cadd9   Em7            D     G
So cheer up my brothers, live in the sunshine

            Cadd9     Em7         D
We'll understand this, all by and by
[Instrumental] G Cadd9 Em7 D [Verse 2]
                 G
Still I get hard pressed on every side

  Cadd9
Between the rock and a compromise

         Em7                                   D
Like the truth and pack of lies fightin for my soul

                               G
And Ive got no place left to go

                                          Cadd9
Cause I got changed by what I've been shown

                                   Em7
More glory than the world has known

                  D
Keeps me ramblin on

                 G
Skipping like a calf loosed from its stall

   Cadd9
Im free to love once and for all

    Em7                              D
And even when I fall I'll get back up

                                 G
For the joy that overflows my cup

                                      Cadd9
Heaven filled me with more than enough

                                  Em7
Broke down my levees and my bluffs

                     D
Let the flood wash me

                      G
And one day when the sky rolls back on us

Cadd9
Some rejoice and the others fuss

       Em7                                 D
Cause every knee must bow and tongue confess

                                      G
That the son of god is forever blessed

                                   Cadd9
His is the kingdom, were the guests

                                Em7
So put your voice up to the test

                   D
Sing Lord, come soon
[Chorus]
G          Cadd9    Em7         D      G
  Farther along we'll know all about it

         Cadd9    Em7          D   G
Farther along we'll understand why

               Cadd9   Em7            D     G
So cheer up my brothers, live in the sunshine

            Cadd9     Em7         D
We'll understand this, all by and by
