Dm         Em7              A7        
  One day    you're gonna understand
Dm Dm Dm Gm A7 Dm C F

Gm A7 Dm F
      


[Verse]
Gm          G           Am          
Zion Unsure of what the balance held
Dm C                           
I  touched my belly overwhelmed
Gm        A7              Dm C       F
By what I had been chosen to perform 
Gm                Am          
But then an angel came one day
Dm   C     F              Gm  
Told me to kneel down and pray
         A7             Dm       F   
For unto me a man child would be born
Gm             Dm          
Woe this crazy circumstance
  C        F               Gm    
I knew his life deserved a chance
    A7                   D7 C     F
But everybody told me to be smart 
Gm                  A7       
Look at your career they said
Dm     C             Gm  
Lauryn baby use your head
    A7                             
But instead I chose to use my heart


[Chorus]
F       Gm  A7    Dm    C7 F     Gm   A7 Dm
Now the joy of my world   is in Zion    
F       C7  Gm A7    Dm    F     Gm  
Now the joy   of my world is in Zion
A7 Dm7 C F
      


[Verse]
Gm                       C7  
How beautiful if nothing more
F7                         
Than to wait at Zion's door
           A7                Dm   C7     F
I've never been in love like this before 
Gm                 Am           
Now let me pray to keep you from
Dm  C      F                Gm  
The perils that will surely come
    A7                     Dm       F    
See life for you my prince has just begun
    Gm7             Am         
And I thank you for choosing me
Dm      C       F            Gm
To come through unto life to be
  G         Dm            C   F    
A beautiful reflection of his grace
Gm                A7           
See I know that a gift so great
Dm      C   F         Gm    
Is only one god could create
        A7                  Dm             
And I'm reminded every time I see your face


[Chorus]
         Gm  A7    Dm    F         
That the joy of my world is in Zion
Gm          A7          Dm        
Now the joy of my world is in Zion
C       G   Gm    Dm    C F     Gm   A7 C
Now the joy of my world  is in Zion   
F       Gm  A7    Dm    F     Gm  
Now the joy of my world is in Zion

[Bridge]
                                  C                   
I know none of the guys are gonna raise their hand but
            A7                      D7
How many of y'all ever been in love  
            G                  
I know none of the guys been in
         G                
We don't get in love right
C      A7                                  D7                 
Oh Let this black man right here tell what his idea of love is
G7                      C                     D7             A7  
'cause not all the time we hear a young black man talk about love


[Verse]
D7                                           G7           G      C
About your personal definition don't tell me what Webster thinks 
A7 D7       G                           
  Huh Okay everything like what Explain
             G    
Let him talk c'mon
C                              A7       
If I asked him to talk about a fancy car
                 D7   
He'd be right on point
       D7                                 
But we wanna talk about love you can do it
G7               
What do you think
C7                        
You said you love somebody
A7                                D7    G7
You should know why you love them right  


[Chorus]
A7        
Uhhuh Okay
D7                          G7       
The way that they hang with they boys
G             C     D7 
And they just stand out
          A7                 D7         
It's like sometimes it don't even matter
                                      G   
Like what they wear or what they look like
          C        A7         
It's like that way   you know
D7                                        
It's like you know you want to talk to him
G7                              C7 A7                        
Because he stands out it's like   he got a glow or something
           
That's deep
          D7                        
I thought that was a beautiful point


[Outro]
G                                 
Anyone else want to deal with that
G7   Cmaj7                                    
It's sometimes like when they try to act funny
   A7                
In front of they boys
D7                 G7     G        C   
Like when they get around say they love
D7 A7 C D7 G7 C D7 A7
             
D7 G C A7 Dm G7
