[Am][E][Am][E][Em][Am][E][Am][E][Am]

[Verse 1]
I am [Am]a poor,

A- [Em]travelin' [Dm]through this world [Am]of woe
Yet there's no sickness, no toil, no danger
In [Dm]that bright [E]world to which [Am]I go

[Verse 2]
I'm going [F]there to see [C]my father
I'm going [F]there no more
to [C]roam[Am][E]
I'm only [Am]going over Jordan
I'm only [Dm]go in[E]g over h[Am]ome

[Verse 3]
I know dark [Am]clouds gather 'round [E]me
[Am]I know my [Dm]way is rough and stee[Am]p
[E]Yet gol[Am]den fields lie just before me
[E]Where sou[Am]ls redeemed
[Dm]shal[E]l ever sleep[Am]
[E]I'm goi[Am]ng there

[Verse 4]
[F]to see my [C]father
I'm going [F]there no more to [C]roam[Am][E]
I'm only [Am]going over Jordan
I'm only [Dm]going [E]over hom[Am]e

[Verse 5]
I want [Am]to wear [E]cro[Am]wn of glory
When I [Dm]get home to that good [Am]land
I wanna shout [E]down [Am]Satan's story
In concert [Dm]with [E]the blood was[Am]hed band

[Verse 6]
I'm going [F]there to see my [C]father
He said he'd [F]meet me
when I come [C]home[E]
I'm only [Am]going over Jordan
I'm only [Dm]going [E]over hom[Am]e

[Verse 7]
I'm going [F]there [C]to see my father
He said he'd [F]meet me when I
come [C]home[E]
I'm only [Am]going over Jordan
[E]I'm only goi[Dm]ng ove[E]r home[Am]

[Verse 8]

[E]I'm onl[Am]y goi[Dm]ng ove[E]r home[Am]
I'm only [Dm]going [E]over hom[Am]e
