When I Get Where I'm Going

[Verse 1: Brad Paisley]

When I get where I'm going

On the far side of the sky

The first thing that I'm gonna do

Is spread my wings and fly

[Verse 2: Brad Paisley]

I'm gonna land beside a lion

And run my fingers through his mane

Or I might find out what it's like

To ride a drop of rain

[Chorus: Brad Paisley & Dolly Parton, Brad Paisley]

Yeah when I get where I'm going

There'll be only happy tears

I will shed the sins and struggles I have carried all these years

And I'll leave my heart wide open

I will love and have no fear

Yeah when I get where I'm going

Don't cry for me down here

[Verse 3: Brad Paisley]

I'm gonna walk with my grandaddy

And he'll match me step for step

And I'll tell him how I've missed him

Every minute since he left

And then I'll hug his neck

[Chorus: Brad Paisley & Dolly Parton]

Yeah when I get where I'm going

There'll be only happy tears

I will shed the sins and struggles I have carried all these years

And I'll leave my heart wide open

I will love and have no fear

Yeah when I get where I'm going

Don't cry for me down here

[Bridge: Brad Paisley]

So much pain and so much darkness

In this world we stumble through

All these questions I can't answer

And so much work to do

[Verse 4: Brad Paisley, Brad Paisley & Dolly Parton]

But when I get where I'm going

And I see my maker's face

I'll stand forever in the light

Of his amazing grace

[Outro: Brad Paisley & Dolly Parton, Dolly Parton, Brad Paisley]

Yeah when I get where I'm going

But when I get where I'm going

There'll be only happy tears

Hallelujah

I will love and have no fear

When I get where I'm going

Yeah when I get where I'm going
