[Eb]
[Ab]
In a dreary Yankee prison where a rebel [Eb] soldier lay
By his side stood a preacher, ere his soul should pass [Ab] away
And he whispered, oh so faintly, and he held the [Eb] preacher's hand
Oh, parson, tell me quickly, will my soul pass through [Ab] the Southland?
Will my soul pass through the Southland, through the tall Virginia [Eb] pile?
Will I see the hills of Georgia and the fields of [Ab] Alabama?
Will I see that little churchyard where I pledged my heart [Eb] and feet?
Oh, parson, tell me quickly, will my soul pass through [Ab] the Southland?
Was [Bb] for lovin' dear old Dixie, in this northern [F] state I lie
Was for lovin' dear old Dixie, in this dreary [Bb] cell I die
And if you see my little darlin', try to make her [F] understand
Oh, parson, tell me quickly, will my soul pass [Bb] through the Southland?
Will my soul pass through the Southland, through the tall [F] Virginia pile?
Will I see the hills of Georgia and the fields of [Bb] Alabama?
Will I see that little churchyard where [F] I pledged my heart and feet?
Oh, parson, tell me quickly, will my soul pass through the Southland?
