verse 1 
D                                                  G 
He's standin' behind the pulpit he's callin' out the lines 
    D                                         A 
His hummin' congregation just a little ways behind 
D                                                     G 
Echos down the streets of gold and through the pearly gates 
D                           A                D 
Ripples o'er the Jordan and goes on past the banks 

verse 2 
D                                                G 
He's rattlin' a Werther's on his dentures in the pews 
     D                                          A 
He's holdin' down the base it's a little out of tune 
        D                                                 G 
But his heart is in the hymnal and that's all the boy can do 
      D                             A                 D 
He'll make a joyful sound until the last have come to roost 

D 
Hallelujah-- Jubilee 
                     A 
I can hear the angel band 
      D               G 
I was blind but now I see 
         D                                 A                D 
And I'll jump right in amongst them when I reach that glory land 

verse 3 
D                                                   G 
She's shoutin' in the aisle she's shakin' somethin' fierce 
   D                                                 A 
It feels so good to be home after all these faithful years 
      D                                                     G 
She's took a walk with Jesus she's touched his nail scarred hands 
D                           A             D 
Didn't even bother her that he's a darker man 

D 
Hallelujah-- Jubilee 
                     A 
I can hear the angel band 
      D               G 
I was blind but now I see 
         D                                 A                D 
And I'll jump right in amongst them when I reach that glory land

verse 4 
D                                                G 
There's Methodists and Catholics Baptists of all kinds 
D                                                 A 
Mennonites and Amish boys that left their plows behind 
        D                                                 G 
They're up there in the choir and they're singin' side by side 
D                              A                 D 
Wonderin' why exactly they was fussin' the whole time 

D 
Hallelujah-- Jubilee 
                     A 
I can hear the angel band 
      D               G 
I was blind but now I see 
         D                                 A                D 
And I'll jump right in amongst them when I reach that glory land 
         D                                 A                D 
And I'll jump right in amongst them when I reach that glory land
