A      E             A     A7
I am a pilgrim and a stranger
           D                     A  
Travelling through this wearsome land
           A       A7          D         D7
I've got a home in that yonder city good Lord
         A   E           A
And it's not not made by hand

SOLO

A          E                   A    A7
I've got a mother sister and a brother
         D             A
Who have gone this way before
                A7        D              7
I am determined to go and see them good Lord
     A   E          A
Over on  that other shore

SOLO

A       E                     A   A7
I going down to the river of Jordan
        D                 A 
Just to bathe my wearsome soul
A                       A7         D
If I can just touch the hem of his garmet good Lord
       A      E            A
Then I know   he'd take me home

A      E             A     A7
I am a pilgrim and a stranger
           D                     A  
Travelling through this wearsome land
           A       A7          D         D7
I've got a home in that yonder city good Lord
         A   E           A
And it's not not made by hand
