Intro - Emadd9

C2 C(nc) B(nc) A7sus4 Emadd9

We are pilgrims in a strange land, We are so far from our homeland.

C G Am7 G C G Am7 G

With each passing day it seems so clear, This world will never want us here.

C G Am7 G C G Bb(b5) Fmaj7

We're not welcome in this world of wrong, We are foreigners who don't belong.

Chorus: (1x on first time, 2x on second time, instrument break on changes

and goto bridge)

Emadd9

Enc F#nc G D Cmaj7 Am7 Dsus4 Bm7 Emadd9

We are strangers, we are aliens, we are not of this world.

Emadd9 C2 C(nc) B(nc) A7sus4 Emadd9

We are envoys, we must tarry with this message we must carry.

C G Am7 G C G Am7 G

There's so much to do before we leave, with so many more who may believe.

C G Am7 G C G Bb(b5) Fmaj7

Our mission here can never fail, and the gates of hell will not prevail.

Emadd9, chorus

C G Am7 G C G Am7 G

Jesus told us men would hate us, but we must be of good cheer,

C G Am7 G C G Bb(b5) Fmaj7

He has overcome this world of darkness, soon we will depart from here.
