Tonart: C major
Verse 1
F
They called me to Jordan, said, "Boy,
pack your things
G
The greatest bomb is coming
to sort out the unclean
F
And if you go to Jordan,
you'll face your enemies
G
But if you don't, you won't have more
than your mother's grief
Verse 2
F
Jordan,
don't stop for anything
G
When she asks you if you're thirsty,
and you are, don't have a drink
F
It's not your task to understand
the power of your feet
G
You just must walk to Jordan, boy,
because it's what we need"
Verse 3
F
So I, to Jordan, with nobody in tow
the end of its shadow
F
With a mind to quiet the
questions that I keep
G
Like a baby in the womb rocks
its mother into sleep
Verse 4
F
G
I do not know my name
F
G
By the time my body falls
flat at Jordan's gate
F
And I cry, "Brother, sister,
Mary Full of Grace
G
Please tell me what I've done to have
been pulled up from my place"
Verse 5
and there
A man who is so dark,
he has black bullets in his hands
F
And he says, "Friend, my friend,
do you remember me?"
G
And I said, "You must be mistaken,
sir, I came from Galilee"
Verse 6
and you have served me well
G
You have found the gates of Jordan
despite every kind of hell
F
Now, please,
you must take this burden off of me
G
I will blow my trumpet, boy,
and you'll bomb Galilee"
C
F
"But, sir, I can't, that is my family
G
They are just as dark and troubled
and burdened by belief
F
I can't be cut off from the shadow
that was cast by my own feet
G
To thank God for his calling
at the cost of Galilee"
Verse 7
arm, said,
G
"Take this trumpet here
F
G
You can play your town a song
while I take them by the ear
F
This is the way of things you simply
do not understand
G
And I can only show you grace,
dear boy, if you will take my hand"
Verse 8
F
So there I laid my body to rest
G
Having reached the gates
of Jordan for the journey in itself
F
I cannot want to wander
any longer through this hell
Dm
To be left for dead in Jordan
