Merle Haggard - Wait A Little Longer Please Jesus guitar chord

(E) Here the labor is so hard

And the (A) workers, they are (E) tired

And our weary hearts are yearnin' for a (B7) rest

And I (E) find we're getting anxious

To (A) be in that happy (E) home

Where we'll receive such (B7) peace and happi-(E) ness.

CHORUS

(E) But wait a little longer, please (B7) Jesus

There are so many wandering out in (E) sin

Just a little longer, please (B7) Jesus

A few more days to get our loved ones (E) in.

The family's scattered here and there

And oh, Lord we love them dear

Maybe we can help them find the way

But if waiting is the cost

Dear, oh, Lord they might be lost

And that's the only reason why we say.

CHORUS
