Chords with lyrics
C majorC FF
I was standing by the bedside of a neighbor
C majorC G7G7 D7D7 G7G7
Who was bound to cross Jordan's swelling tide
C majorC FF
And I asked him if he would do me a favor
C majorC G7G7 C majorC FF C majorC
And kindly take this message to the other side
FF
If you see my Savior tell Him that you saw me
C majorC G7G7 D7D7 G7G7
Ah and when you saw me I was on my way
C majorC FF
When you reach that golden city think about me
C majorC G7G7 C majorC FF C majorC
But don't forget to tell the Savior what I said
FF
Though you have to make the journey on without me
C majorC G7G7 D7D7 G7G7
Oh that's a debt sooner or later must be paid
C majorC FF
You may see some old friends who may ask about me
C majorC G7G7 C majorC FF C majorC
Oh tell them I am coming home some sweet day
FF
I was standing by the bedside of a neighbor
C majorC G7G7 D7D7 G7G7
Who was bound to cross Jordan's swelling tide
C majorC FF
And I asked him if he would do me a favor
C majorC G7G7 A minorAm
And kindly take this message to the other side
C majorC G7G7 C majorC FF C majorC
Won't you kindly take this message to the other side
FF
I was standing yes I was standing
C majorC G7G7 D7D7 G7G7
I was standing standing by a friend
C majorC FF
Who was leaving to cross the Jordan
C majorC G7G7 C majorC
