[Intro]
[Verse]
Thereâs a jersey on the wall
In a high school gym in my home town
In the corner by the scoreboard
Where the bleacher seats fold down
twenty seven took the tigers
to the finals that year
but thatâs not why itâs hanging there
[Chorus]
If I ever get to heaven
You know I got a long list of questions
like how do you make a snowflake
are you angry when the Earth quakes
how does the sky change in a minute
how do you keep this big rock spinning
Why canât you stop a car from crashing
forgive me Iâm just asking
[Verse]
I bet somewhere thereâs a yearbook
in a box under a bed
with a senior picture missing
in loving memory instead
and somewhere thereâs a mother
who stopped going to church
cause your plan quit making sense
Down here on Earth
[Chorus]
If I ever get to heaven
you know I got a long list of questions
Like how do you make a snowflake
are you angry when the Earth quakes
how does the sky change in a minute
how do you keep this big rock spinning
Why couldnât you stop that car from crashing
forgive me Iâm just asking
[Bridge]
oh Iâm just saying
You donât have to answer now
oh but someday
[Chorus]
if I ever get to heaven
I got a long list of questions
Like how do you make a snowflake
are you angry when the Earth quakes
how does the sky change in a minute
how do you keep this big rock spinning
if youâve got your hands
on everything that happens
Then why couldnât you stop that car fron crashing
forgive me Iâm just asking
[Outro]
oh Iâm just asking
