Am   C/G   Am   C/G


[Verse]~
   Am                            C/G
Way down in Black River,.. where my family is from

         Am                                 C/G
They been workin' on a building that's gonna add lots o' sun

                F                  G              C/G
They been layin' bricks,.. every time Sunday mornin' comes

       F           G                   C/G
Singin' songs about faith and salvation


[Chorus]~
                   F                   C/G
They say "we're all pilgrims,.. we're all strangers,..

       G                F         C/G
In this land,.. we're just travelin' through"

     F                                 C/G
Oh so do ya lord,.. would you remember me do ya lord

        G     F        C/G
When I'm way beyond the blue


[Verse]~
       Am                                  C/G
Well my brothers,.. me,.. and my cousins had an early theological start

Am                                         C/G
Learnin' them Black River gospel hymns and singin' em' all by heart

             F             G            C/G
We were up on stage,.. like a sacrifice to God

                         F             G              C/G
Well that's the price you pay,.. when you grow up in the south


[Chorus]~
               F                   C/G
Cause we're all pilgrims,.. we're all strangers,..

       G                F         C/G
In this land,.. we're just travelin' through

     F                                 C/G
Oh so do ya lord,.. would you remember me do ya lord

        G     F        C/G
When I'm way beyond the blue


[Bridge]~
D                             Am
When I was a young man,.. Black River I did leave

D                                 Am
Spirit of the open country started,.. callin' to me

    F                  G                 C/G
So I set out across the continent with my friends

        F             G                 Am
Oh Black River I don't think I can do it again

            F                 G                      C/G
Cause I know now that all good things must come to an end


[Chorus]~
             F                   C/G
And we're all pilgrims,.. we're all strangers,..

       G                F         C/G
In this land,.. we're just travelin' through

     F                                 C/G
Oh so do ya lord,.. would you remember me do ya lord

         G           F                  C/G
Believin' boy in that southern Methodist pew

       F                                 C/G
Oh yeah do ya lord,.. would you remember me do ya lord

        G     F        C/G
When I'm way beyond the blue

          G     F           C/G  G  F G  C/G
Cause I am way beyond the blue
