[Intro]
 G       C     G              C
Mmmmmmm mmmmmm   mmm mmm mmm mmm
 
[Verse]
    G
My grandpa taught me
       C
′Bout Buck knives and shotguns
        G
How to cast an old Zebco
        D
How to work a stick shift
 
    G
He taught me the Bible
       C
'Bout all 12 disciples
    G
He made sure that I know
         D
There′s life after this
 
      Am
With pearly gates
     G
And streets of gold
          C
And if I just believe
        D
That's where I'll go
 
 
[Chorus]
              G
Lord, when I die
         C                        G
I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven
                              G
Where there′s dirt roads for miles
                C                       D
And hay in the fields, and fish in the river
               Em
Where there′s dogwood trees, and honeybees
     D                            C
And blue skies, and green grass forever
                  G
So, Lord, when I die
         C                        G      C
I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven
 
 
[Verse]
        G
Now it says in the King James
        C
In the Almighty's kingdom
    G
He mentions a mansion
           D
That he′s built just for me
 
   G
I gladly trade it
       C
For a farmhouse with acreage
       G
And a backyard that's shaded
       D
And a squeaky front-porch swing
                D
That′s where I wanna hang my wings
 
 
[Chorus]
        G
When I die
         C                        G
I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven
                              G
Where there′s dirt roads for miles
                C                       D
And hay in the fields, and fish in the river
 
               Em
Where there′s dogwood trees, and honeybees
     D                            C
And blue skies, and green grass forever
                  G
So, Lord, when I die
         C                        G     G
I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven
 
 
[Outro]
         Em
The good Lord knows me
                 D
He knows I need blue skies
                   C
And green grass forever
                 G
So, Lord when I die
             C                        G
And I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven 
              G
Lord, when I die
         C                              G
I wanna live on the outskirts of Heaven
