G C D
Everybody's wonderin' what and where they all came from.
G C D
Everybodys worryin' 'bout where they're gonna go
when the whole thing's done.
G C G C
But no one knows for certain and so it's all the same to me.
G D G
I think I'll just let the mystery be.
Some say once you're gone you're gone forever,
and some say you're gonna come back.
Some say you rest in the arms of the Savior
if in sinful ways you lack.
Some say that they're comin' back in a garden,
bunch of carrots and little sweet peas.
I think I'll just let the mystery be.
Chorus
Instrumental break.
Some say they're goin' to a place called Glory
and I ain't saying it ain't a fact.
But I've heard that I'm on the road to purgatory
and I don't like the sound of that.
Well, I believe in love and I live my life accordingly.
But I choose to let the mystery be.
Chorus
(Thanks to Thomas MacWilliams for tabs)
