When I Take My Vacation In Heaven Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

[C]There are those who are taking vacations

To the [F]mountains the lakes and the [C]sea

Where they rest from their cares and their troubles

What a [D7]wonderful time that must [G7]be


But it [C]seems not my [G7]lot to be like [C]them

I must [F]toil through the heat and the [C]cold

Seeking out the lost sheep on a mountain

Bringing [D7]wanderers [G7]back to the [C]fold


But when I take my vacation in heaven

What a [F]wonderful time that will [C]be


Hearing concerts by the heavenly chorus

And the [D7]face of my Savior I'll [G7]see


Sitting [C]down on the [G7]banks of the [C]river

Neath the [F]shade of the evergreen [C]tree

There I'll rest from my burdens forever

Won't you [D7]take your [G7]vacation with [C]me


Sitting [C]down on the [G7]banks of the [C]river

Neath the [F]shade of the evergreen [C]tree

There I'll rest from my burdens forever

Won't you [D7]take your [G7]vacation with [C]me
