An old log house and it half-built
C G
A home made bed just one old quilt
C G7 C G
A Holy Bible that ma left to me
D7
Makes me as rich as rich can be

My friends have gold yet they are sad
C G
They own the best that can be had

While I just live from day to day

I know the Lord will make a way
My corn crib's filled with nothing but cobs

Cause corn won't grow on these poor knobs
C G7 C G
The sun's too hot and the rain won't fall
D7
There's a cloud in the sky but it's too small

My housetop leaks and I get damp
C G
Here on this earth I'm called a tramp
C G7 C G
But I can smile and feel so proud
D7 G
I know my home's beyond the clouds
My old hound dog is growing thin
C G
Like me he only has two friends
C G7 C G
I'm sure that if we only knew
D7
He longs for heaven like me and you

My shoes are thin my feet get cold
C G
But I trudge on to make my goal
C G7 C G
For I can smile and feel so proud
D7 G
I know my home's beyond the clouds
C G D7 G
I know my home's beyond the clouds
