Heaven

Heaven by Willy Grigg
It’s heaven.

Heaven by Willy Grigg 6/2/23

I wanna go to heaven, it’s great to be in heaven
Whenever I’m in heaven, I’m in a heavenly state
There’s no oppression or aggression, when you’re up in heaven
That’s why I’m going to heaven, I can hardly wait

When I get there everything slides off my mind
My heart feels peace, I don’t even think about being unkind
Take my hand, let’s not be scared
Let’s make a plan, I’ll meet you there
That sacred place, where love is in the air

I wanna be in heaven, I like to be in heaven
Whenever I’m in heaven, everything’s alright
I think I learn a lesson, each time I’m in heaven
When nature reveals herself to me in paradise

Let’s slow down, touch the ground and grab a breath of fresh air
There’s chaos ruling and people drooling in their comfortable chair
But heaven’s really not that far, We’re safe beneath the moon and stars
To say what we mean, be who we really are

I like to go to heaven, it’s great to be in heaven,
I feel so safe there, I feel so free
Whenever I’m in heaven, my amps turned to 11
And the universe sings along with me
I like to be in heaven, I like to be in heaven

Whenever I’m in heaven, my amps turned to 11
And the universe sings along with me
I like to be in heaven, I like to be in heaven

You Can Be by Willy Grigg 3/3/23

[E]You can be soft, [A] but you don’t [E] have to be soft [A]
[E] You can be strong,[A] but you don’t have to be [E] strong
[E] You have the right, [A] to decide who you are [E]
No one has the right, [A] to tell you you’re[B] wrong

[A] If you’re not [B] hurting no one [E] else
[A] It’s no one’s [B] business what you [E] do
[A] The songs you [B] sing, the clothes you [G#m]wear [C#m]
How could [F#m] someone be offended?
Why would anybody [B7] care?

You’ve [E] got a voice, inside of you
Iit wants to sing out, it wants to ring true
I’ve got a voice, inside of me
The song I sing might not be right for you

Is there anything more cruel?
Then to tell someone they’re wrong
Wrong because of how they feel (inside)
That can’t be changed with prayers or magic wands

You can be soft, but you don’t have to be soft
You can be strong, but you don’t have to be strong
You have the right to decide who you are
You have the right to decide who you are
You have the right, be who you are

Put Your Hand in the Hand by Gene MacLellan

Put your [G] hand in the hand of the man who stilled the [D7] water.
Put your [Am7] hand in the hand of the [D7] man who calmed the [G] sea.
Take a [Dm] look at yourself and a [G7] you can look at
[C] others differently. [C#dim7]
By putting your [G/D] hand in the [Em] hand of the [A7] man from [D7]Galilee[G]

Every [G] time I look into the holy book I want to [D7] tremble.
When I [Am7] read about the part
where the [D7] carpenter cleared the [G] temple. [C] [G]
For the [Dm7] buyers and the sellers were [G7] no different fellas
than what [C] I profess to [C#dim7] be.
And it [G/D] causes me [Em] shame
to know I’m [A7] not the person [D7] I should [G] be. [C] [G]

My momma taught me how to pray before I reached the age of seven
When I’m down on my knees, that’s when I’m closest to heaven
Daddy lived his life, two kids and a wife, well you do what you must do
But he showed me enough of what it takes to get me through, oh yeah!
