One of my sister's favorites...
[Verse 1]
(Johnny)
F C I believe my steps are growing wearier each day F Still I've got another journey on my mind C Lures of this old world have ceased to make me wanna stay F And my one regret is leaving you behind.
[Verse 2]
(June)
F C But if it proves to be his will that I am first to cross F And somehow I'll be feeling it will be C When it comes your time to travel like wise don't feel lost F For I will be the first one that you'll see.
[Chorus]
F And I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan Bb F I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand C F And when I see you coming I will rise up with a shout Bb F C F And come running through the shallow water reaching for your hand.
[Verse 3]
F C (Johnny) Through this life we've labored hard to earn our meager fare F It's brought us trembling hands and failing eyes C (June) So I'll just rest here on this shore and turn my eyes away F Until you come then we'll see paradise.
[Chorus]
F And I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan Bb F I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand C F And when I see you coming I will rise up with a shout Bb F C F And come running through the shallow water reaching for your hand. F And I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan Bb F I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand C F And when I see you coming I will rise up with a shout Bb F C F Bb F And come running through the shallow water reaching for your hand.
