I am a poor wayfarin' stranger Travellin' through this world alone There is no sickness, toil nor danger In that fair land to which I go I'm goin' home to see my mother I'm goin' home no more to roam I am just goin' over Jordan I am just goin' over home I know dark clouds will hover o'er me I know my pathway is rough and steep But golden fields lie out before me Where weary eyes no more will weep I'm goin' home to see my father I'm goin' home no more to roam I am just goin' over Jordan I am just goin' over home I'll soon be free from every trial This form shall rest beneath the Sun I'll drop the cross of self-denial An' enter in that home with God I'm goin' home to see my savior I'm goin' home no more to roam I am just goin' over Jordan I am just goin' over home INTRO: Banjo, Fiddle and Mandolin tabbed for guitar Banjo: Maintained through verses D5 e|------------------ B|------------------ G|-------(2)-0h2-2-- D|-0--(0)----------- A|------------------ E|------------------ Mandolin: After 2x Banjo T e|-------3-5--3-5--3-1------------1---- B|-3-1-3---------------3------1-3---3-- G|------------------------2-2---------- D|------------------------------------- A|------------------------------------- E|------------------------------------- Fiddle: During Mandolin e|-3-5--3-1------- B|----------3----- G|---------------- D|-------------0-- A|---------------- E|---------------- VERSE 1: D5 I am a poor wayfaring stranger G5 D5 Travelin' through this world of woe There is no sickness, toil nor danger G5 D5 In that fair land to which I go CHORUS: D5 I'm goin' home to see my mother G5 D5 I'm goin' home no more to roam I am just goin' over Jordan G5 D5 I am just goin' over home BREAK: Fiddle(s) and Mandolin improvisation D5 D5 G5 D5 D5 D5 G5 D5 VERSE 2: I know dark clouds will hover o'er me I know my pathway is rough and steep But golden fields lie out before me Where weary eyes no more will weep CHORUS I'm goin' home to see my father I'm goin' home no more to roam I am just goin' over Jordan I am just goin' over home BREAK VERSE 3: I'll soon be free from every trial This form shall rest beneath the stars I'll drop the cross of self-denial And enter in that home with God CHORUS I'm goin' home to see my Savior I'm goin' home no more to roam I am just goin' over Jordan I am just goin' over home Mandolin: T e|---1-3-5-10-8-5-3--------3-5-- B|-3------------------1/3------- G|------------------2----------- D|------------------------------ A|------------------------------ E|------------------------------ Fiddle: e|----- B|----- G|----- D|-0--- A|(0)-- E|-----
