[Verse 1]
Em Am Em
My love, my love, don't lie to me
B7 Em
Tell me, where did you sleep last night?
Em
In the pines, in the pines
Am Em
Where the sun never shines
B7 Em
I shivered the whole night through
Em Am Em
My husband was a railroad man
B7 Em
He was killed a mile from here
Em Am Em
His head was found in a driver's wheel
B7 Em
But his body has never been found
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
I am a poor, wayfaring stranger
Am Em
Traveling through this world of woe
Em
But there's no sickness, toll, nor danger
Am B7 Em
In that bright land to which I go
[Chorus]
C D G
I'm going there to see my father
C D B7
I'm going there no more to roam
Em D Em
I'm only going over Jordan
Am B7 Em
I'm only going over home
Em Am Em B7 Em
[Verse 2]
Em Am Em B7 Em
The longest train I ever saw went down the Georgia line
Em Am Em B7 Em
The engines passed at six o'clock and the cab went by at nine
Em Am Em
My love, my love, where will you go?
B7 Em
I'm going where the cold wind blows
[Chorus]
C D G
I'm going there to see my mother
C G B7
She said she'd meet me when I come
Em D Em
I'm only going over Jordan
Am B7 Em
I'm only going over home
