Chorus:
C F C
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Am7 G7
Comin' for to carry me home;
C F C
Swing low, sweet chariot,
G7 C
Comin' for to carry me home.
F C
I looked over Jordan and what did I see?
G7
Comin' for to carry me home;
Am C7+ F C
A band of angels comin' after me,
Am F6 G7 C
Comin' for to carry me home.
I'm on the upward heavenly way,
Since Jesus washed my sins away,
If you get there before I do,
Tell all my friends I'm a-comin' too,
Sometimes I'm up, sometimes I'm down,
But still my soul feels heaven bound,
