[Verse 1]
G                                  Em
Hope is a thing with feathers that perches on the soul

         C                   G             F       C          G
Said the homeless young man standing there strong against the cold

                                Em
I reached into my pocket said a penny for your poetry

           C            G                  F           C       G
But when I handed him a dollar bill he was shaking his head at me

       F          C        D7
And he said these words to me
[Chorus]
      G        D7             G
In my Fa-thers house are many mansions

         C                     G              D7
Though tonight some make their beds along the streets

           G          D7       G              C
Where I’ve seen lives still by winters bitter chill

      G                       D7          G
In my Fathers house there’s a mansion for me
[Verse 2]
                                             Em
Sleep is a silent pleasure behind doors with deadbolt locks

           C                  G                      F
But it’s a concrete nightmare chance you take on the streets

     C         G
In a cardboard box

                                Em
But I know about the eye of the needle what will come to pass

         C           G                      F         C        G
When the least of us shall be first and the first now shall be last

F         C          D7
Who’s homeless now I ask
[Chorus]
      G        D7             G
In my Fa-thers house are many mansions

         C                     G              D7
Though tonight some make their beds along the streets

           G          D7       G              C
Where I’ve seen lives still by winters bitter chill

      G                       D7          G
In my Fathers house there’s a mansion for me
[Chorus]
      G        D7             G
In my Fa-thers house are many mansions

         C                     G              D7
Though tonight some make their beds along the streets

           G          D7       G              C
Where I’ve seen lives still by winters bitter chill

      G                       D7          G
In my Fathers house there’s a mansion for me
