[Intro]
G C G

G    C G
When your life is over, you’re reaching the end
D/F#       G
And the river of Jordan is around the bend
G    C G
Will you be counting all the trophies you’ve won
D/F#       G
Or will you look back on things left undone

[Chorus]
Em    C    G
When a stranger came knocking did you let him in
Em    C    D/F#
Was there food on your table for a down and out friend
C    D    Em
Did you hide in the shadows? Did you walk on the sun
D/F#       G
Or do you regret things left undone

G C    G
Somebody you cared for broke your heart
D/F#    G
You let foolish pride, lord, keep you apart
G    C G
Why didn’t you learn how to forgive someone
D/F#
So many years passed with things left undone

Em    C    G
When a stranger came knocking did you let him in
Em    C D/F#
Was there food on your table for a down and out friend
C    D    Em
Did you hide in the shadows? Did you walk in the sun
D/F#    G
Or do you regret the things left undone.
