I'm just a

I'm going
[F] there to see my
[C] Father
And all my

[Dm] go-
[E7]-ing over
[Am] home

VERSE 2:
I know dark
[Am] clouds will gather round me
I know my

But beautious
[Am] fields arise before me
Where God re-
[Dm]-deems
[E7] their viduals
[Am] keep
CHORUS 2:
I'm going
[F] there to see my
[C] Mother
She said she'd
[F] meet me when I

[Am] going over Jordan
I'm just
[Dm] go-
[E7]-ing over
[Am] home
OUTRO:
I'm just
[Am] going over Jordan
I'm just
[Dm] go-
