(verse 1) 
       A        D           G              A 
Hello God, it's me again, 2 a.m. room of 304, 
                    D              G                 A 
Visiting hours are over, time for our bedside tug-of-war, 
  A                      D            G                   A 
A sleeping child between us, may not make it through the night, 
   A                 D  D/F#        G              Asus/A 
I'm fightin back the tears, as she fights for her life, 
 
         D                G 
Well it must be kind of crowded, 
A                   D 
On the streets of heaven, 
       Bm       G                A D A 
So tell me what do you need her for, 
D                   G         
Don't you know one day she'll be your,  
A               D               Bm 
Little girl, forever, but righ now,  
   G                A - Asus 
I need her so much more, 
                Bm                D 
She's much too young, to be on her own, 
Bm                  G 
Barely just turned seven,  
   D                G              C    G  
So who will hold her hand when she crosses, 
     D      A      D 
The streets of Heaven, 
 
 
(verse 2) 
 
       A                D           G              A 
Tell me God, do you remember, the wishes that she made, 
                    D            G                 A 
AS she blew out the candles, on her last birthday cake, 
 A                   D      G               A 
She wants to ride a pony, when she's big enough, 
   A                    D           G              Asus/A 
She wants to marry her daddy, when she's all grown up, 
 
 
 
(chorus) 
         D                G 
Well it must be kind of crowded, 
A                   D 
On the streets of heaven, 
       Bm       G                A D A 
So tell me what do you need her for, 
D                   G         
Don't you know one day she'll be your,  
A               D               Bm 
Little girl, forever, but righ now,  
   G                A - Asus 
I need her so much more, 
                Bm                D 
She's much too young, to be on her own, 
Bm                  G 
Barely just turned seven,  
   D                  G            C    G  
So who will hold her hand when she crosses, 
     D      A      G 
The streets of Heaven,

(verse 3) 
                A               D 
Lord don't you know, she's my angel, 
          G                A 
You've got plenty of your own, 
      A        A/C#          D   D/G 
And I know you hold a place for her, 
            G      D     A 
But she's already got a home, 
      A                          D 
Well I don't know if you're listening, 
      G                         A 
But prayin's all that's left to do, 
     A                   D 
So I ask you Lord have mercy, 
     G              A 
You lost a son once to, 
 
 
(chorus) 
         D                G 
Well it must be kind of crowded, 
A                   D 
On the streets of heaven, 
       Bm       G                A D A 
So tell me what do you need her for, 
D                   G         
Don't you know one day she'll be your,  
A               D               Bm 
Little girl, forever, but righ now,  
   G                A - Asus 
I need her so much more, 
 
 
(bridge) 
       Bm                     A 
Lord I know, once you've made up your mind, 
  G 
There's no use in beggin,  
       Bm                 G 
So if you, take her with you today, 
 D                 G 
You make sure she looks both ways, 
   D                    G            C    G 
And would you hold her hand when she crosses, 
     D      A      G 
The streets of Heaven, 
  (no chord)      D 
The streets of Heaven,
