Am
I AM A POOR WAYFARIN’ STRANGER
Dm Am
WANDERIN’ THROUGH THIS WORLD OF WOE
AND THERE’S NO SICKNESS, NO TOIL, OR DANGER
Dm Am
IN THAT BRIGHT LAND TO WHICH I GO
Dm7 C
I’M GOING THERE TO MEET MY MOTHER
Dm7 C E
SHE SAID SHE’D MEET ME OVER HOME
Am
I’M ONLY GOING OVER JORDAN
Dm Am
I ONLY GOING OVER HOME
Am
I’LL SOON BE FREE FROM EVERY TRIAL
Dm Am
MY BODY ASLEEP IN THE OLD GRAVE YARD
I’LL DROP THE CROSS OF SELF DENIAL
Dm Am
AND ENTER ON MY GREAT REWARD
Dm7 C
I’M GOING THERE TO MEET MY SISTER
Dm7 C E
SHE SAID SHE’D MEET ME OVER HOME
Am
I’M ONLY GOING OVER JORDAN
Dm Am
I ONLY GOING OVER HOME
Am
I AM A POOR WAYFARIN’ STRANGER
Dm Am
WANDERIN’ THROUGH THIS WORLD OF WOE
AND THERE’S NO SICKNESS, NO TOIL, OR DANGER
Dm Am
IN THAT BRIGHT LAND TO WHICH I GO
Dm7 C
I’M GOING THERE TO MEET MY MOTHER
Dm7 C E
SHE SAID SHE’D MEET ME OVER HOME
Am
I’M ONLY GOING OVER JORDAN
Dm Am
I ONLY GOING OVER HOME
