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.
