Intro: Em 


I've searched in the East 
Am              Em 
Searched in the West 
        Am          B7          Em 
For the riches that others were hoarding 



Fortune is a blind god 
C              G 
Smiling in the breeze 
       Am            B7           Em  
And forgetting me on this side of Jordan 



G             C 
Take off your old coat 
   Em 
And roll up your sleeves 
Am        B7           Em      Am 
Life is a hard road to travel 
    Em 
I believe 



Thunder in the dark clouds 
Am                Em 
Lightening in the trees 
Am          B7             Em 
No shelter above my head afforded 



Battered by the hailstones 
C              G 
Blinded by the breeze 
Am               B7                Em  
That's my way of life this side of Jordan 


G             C 
Take off your old coat 
   Em 
And roll up your sleeves 
Am        B7           Em      Am 
Life is a hard road to travel 
    Em 
I believe
