(intro) G D7 G
When I [G]wade across the [G7]Jordan I?ll be [C]shining
For I [G]know the one I love is over [D7]there,
From the [G]straight and narrow [G7]path I?ve often [C]wandered
But [G]every time he [D7]puts me back on [G]course.
Guide me [D7]then to where the fields of lambs are [G]bleating
Where the [D]tiger soothes the [D7]baby kanga[G]roo,
Where the [C]Transit full of Keith, in the [G]side streets has no [E]beef
With [Am]Elgin, Nairn or [D7]Brora any[G]more.[G][D7][G]
As the [G]yoke begins to [G7]crush my sinning [C]shoulders
And a [G]bunion leads my heart to curse my [D7]feet,
From on [G]high I hear a [G7]choir of angels [C]singing
And [G]all at once the [D7]Kiss fans disa[G]ppear.
Open [D7]doors lead in to open arms and [G]Grandad
[D]Yonder Mum and [D7]Dad stood playing [G]darts,
Come [C]bid my burden ease; come [G]give me bread and [E]cheese
And [Am]let me feed the [D7]birds for ever[G]more.[G][D7][G]
