Wayfaring Stanger

	  		Intro Dm 

1st Verse: 
Dm                  
I am a poor wayfaring stranger 
          G                    Dm 
Travelin' through this world alone 

There is no sickness toil nor danger 
              G              Dm 
In that fair land to which I go 

 
Dm 
I'm goin' home to see my mother (2nd chorus says father, 3rd says saviour) 
                          Am 
I'm goin' home no more to roam 
          Dm 
I am just goin' over Jordan 
          G  Am      Dm 
I am just goin' over home 

Dm G Dm G Dm 

2nd Verse: 
I know dark clouds will hover o'er me 
I know my pathway is rough and steep 
What golden fields lie out before me 
Where weary eyes no more will weap 

Chorus: 

3rd Verse: 
I'll soon be free from every trial 
This form shall rest beneath the sun 
I'll drop that cross of self denial 
And enter in that home with God 

Chorus: 



This is a pretty simple song done by a lot of people,  
but I didn't see Jack White's version in Dm so I wrote it out...  
that being said, there is a guy on youtube who calls himself the  
Bard of Cornwall and plays a mandolin version that sounds great on 
guitar as well and goes like this... 

Intro: 

Bb  Am   Dm 

1st Verse: 
Dm       Gm          Dm                  
I am a poor wayfaring stranger 
          Gm                   Dm 
Travelin' through this world alone 
            F                 Bb 
There is no sickness toil nor danger 
              Gm Am          Dm 
In that fair land to which I go 


Dm         Gm           Dm 
I'm goin' home to see my mother (2nd chorus says father, 3rd says saviour) 
                          Am 
I'm goin' home no more to roam 
          Dm  Gm     Dm 
I am just goin' over Jordan 
          Bb   Am    Dm 
I am just goin' over home 


Bb   Am   Dm 


Same words, and repeat the first verse after the third chorus  
followed by the first chours...and as far as I'm concerend you  
can swith out the G for a Gm in Jack White's version and it  
will still sound sweet..
