Sweet Chariot Emmylou Harris
Oh my [B]darlin' I have searched the [G#m]desert and the [B]sky
Just to find you and take the [F#]mourning from my eyes
When I [B]lost you I suffered and [E]you were sancti[B]fied
We are [G#m]all born to [F#]live we are a[E]ll bound to [B]die
Chorus:
Swing down sweet chariot, the [F#]flesh will fall and the bones will [F#7]rot
But [B]from my sorrow you'll carry me not
My heart is bound my [F#]soul is chained to the [B]rock
Rock of ages cleft for me, I swung do[F#]wn my hammer out in Joshua T[F#7]ree
It [B]rang on the mountain and rolled to the sea
And it will [F#]ring from the [B]rock
Oh my children, sorrow shall come to each of us
All our trials will soon lay buried in the dust
Long forgotten but quick as silver turns to rust
Love is found when the heart is lost
Chorus
