I'm just a | [Am] poor, | wayfarin' | stranger | [Am]
Travelin' | [Dm] through, | this world be- | [Am] low | [Am]

In that bright | [Dm] land | [E7] to which I | [Am] go   | [Am]

Chorus
I'm goin' | [F] there, | to see my | [C] father | [C]
And all my | [F] loved ones, | who've gone | [E7] on | [E7]
I'm just | [Am] go... | in' over | Jordan | [Am]
I'm just | [Dm] go... | [E7] in' over | [Am] home | [Am]

I know dark   | [Am] clouds, | will gather | round me | [Am]
I know my | [Dm] way, | is hard and | [Am] steep | [Am]
But beauteous | [Am] fields, | arise be- | fore me | [Am]
Where God's re- | [Dm] deemed | [E7] their vigils | [Am] keep | [Am]

I'm goin' | [F] there, | to see my | [C] mother | [C]

I'm just | [Dm] go... | [E7] in' over | [Am] home   | [Am]
I'm just | [Am] go... | in' over | Jordan | [Am]
