chord and the others to play for this
song with the guitar capo at the 3rd
fret? is this song one that has chord
shapes played further up the neck
(closer to the 12th fret)? we tried to
do it the other day and i just could not
get the mando to sound right with the
guitar. we were both tuned, but i think
I was lost in space..........thanks for the
help! my friends the sixteen year old
prodigy and her mom now want to do this
song for sunday church. thanks again!!!!!!!!!!!! :grin::grin::grin:

(Verse 1)
[C]Out on the hills of glory land
So happy and free at God's right hand
They tell of a place of marvelous [Am]grace
On Heaven's bright [G]shore[D][G]

(Verse 2)
Pilgrims on [C]earth some day will go
To live in that home for evermore
Trusting in Him who [Am]died for [G]sin
And rose from the [C]grave[F][C]

(Chorus)
On Heaven's bright shore (on Heavens's bright shore)
There's gonna be no more dyin (over there)
Not one little grave (not one little grave)
In all that fair [G]land (that [D]wonderful [G]land)
Not even a [C]tear will dim the eye
And no one up there will say goodbye
Just singing His praise through [Am]endless [G]days
On Heaven's bright [C]shore (on [F]Heaven's bright [C]shore)

Verse 3
When I must cross that rolling tide
There'll be someone on the other side
Welcoming me to that fair land
Made perfect by love

Verse 4
When I walk up that milky white way
I'll see that home coming in array
How great it must be for Angels to see
A pilgrim reach home

She plays --> you play

C --> Eb
D --> F
F --> Ab
G --> Bb

probably easiest to play these as closed chords up the neck.
hint:
Eb is D one fret further up, F is two more
Ab is A one fret further up, Bb is two more

if you have barre or chop chords for D and A you can move these accordingly

[or... you could get a cheater too... "lots of cheatin' going on" as Lester says in the 'interview'...]
