Capo 3
G D
I believe my steps are growing wearier each day
G
Still I've got a journey on my mind.
G D
The lures of this old world have ceased to make me want to stay
G
And my one regret is leaving you behind.
G D
If it should prove to be His will that I am first to cross
G
And somehow I've a feeling it will be.
G D
When it comes your time to travel, likewise don't feel lost
G
For I will be the first one that you see.
Chorus
G
And I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan.
C G
I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand.
D G
And when I see you coming, I will rise up with a shout
C G D G
And come running through the shallow water reaching for your hand.
G D
Through this world we labor hard to earn our meager fare
G
It's brought us trembling hands and failing eyes.
G D
So I'll just rest here on the shore and turn my head away
G
Until you come and we'll see Paradise.
Chorus
G
And I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan.
C G
I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand.
D G
And when I see you coming, I will rise up with a shout
C G D G
And come running through the shallow water reaching for your hand.
G
Yes I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan.
C G
I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand.
D G
And when I see you coming, I will rise up with a shout
C G D G
And come running through the shallow waters reaching for your hand
C G D G
Yes I'll come running through the shallow waters reaching for your hand
