       G5      A5
Everybody is w      orryin' 'bout where they're gonna       go

But no one knows for c      ertain, and so it's a      ll the same to       me
       D5      A5      D5
       I think I'll just        let the mystery        be.

2. Some s      ay they're goin' to a p      lace called Glory
       A5      D5
 And I a      in't sayin' it ain't a f      act
       D5      G5
 But I've h      eard that I'm on the r      oad to purgatory
       A5      D5
 And I d      on't like the sound of t      hat

       D5      A5      D5
        But I choose        to let the mystery        be.
