Louvin Brothers - River Of Jordan guitar chord

River of Jordan

Louvin Brothers

Intro: A E A A

A E A

To the river of Jordan, our savior went one day

E A

And we read that John the Baptist met him there

A7 D

And when John baptized Jesus in Jordan's rushing waters

A E A

The mighty power of God filled the air

CHORUS 1:

A

Well I'm on my way, (to the River of Jordan)

E

I'm gonna wade right in, (in the rushing waters)

A A7 D

I'm going down (I'm going down) to the River of Jordan

A E A

And let the cool waters cleanse my soul

SOLO (OVER CHORUS)

King Naaman was stricken with dreaded leprosy

And he sent for the man of God to pray

But Elija said to Naaman, go dip yourself in Jordan

And let the cool waters wash your spots away

CHORUS 2:

So he went right down (to the River of Jordan)

He waded right in (in the rushing waters)

He dip himself (he dipped himself) in the River of Jordan

And the cool waters made him whole

The River of Jordan is many miles away

And this mighty river I may never see

But I'll find myself an alter in an old fashioned church

And my River of Jordan that will be

CHOURS 1:

Well I'm on my way, (to the River of Jordan)

I'm gonna wade right in, (in the rushing waters)

I'm going down (I'm going down) to the River of Jordan

And let the cool waters cleanse my soul
