Am C G
How long its been, since the family called and spread the news
Am C G
I cried his name, I think of all the times we had
Am C G
I can't stop him, he's on his way to paradise
Am C G
He's my best friend, he taught me everything I know
C G
I hugged him tight as our tears would flow
C G Am
I pray all night til the roosters crow, how long its been
I hope he's proud, of the choices that he knew I made
how I turned out, I did my best to live up his name
The best I can, I hope thats good enough for him
I hope that he will understand
I pray to God to ease the pain, I hope he's proud
I stand around, waiting for the preacher to speak
and hold my tears, thinking of his life and living
all those years, meeting people I never met
It's remarkable, seeing all the lives he touched
Hanging around the ones he loved
Praising Jesus from up above, I stand around
One by one they stood, telling about how great of a man
he always was, a man of his word, praising the Lord
I can't stop him, he's on his way to paradise
He's my best friend, he taught me everything I know
I cover my face so the tears won't show
I'll pray all night so I'll always know, He's in good hands
