Start Jamming...
[A] Friends, right now it's hymn time.
All the boys gathering around.
We're gonna go back and get one of the first things I ever learned.
This is an old one.
I think Louie might even join in with us on this one.
Yeah, I'm gonna sing on this one.
You gonna sing on this one?
You and Burrhead fight over who's gonna sing bass here.
We're gonna join up here on
I'm Bound for the Promised Land.
[D] [A] [D]
On Jordan's [G] stormy banks [D] I stand and cast a [A] wishful lie
[D] To Canaan's fair and happy land where my [A] possessions [D] lie
I am bound for the promised [A] land
I am [D] bound for the [A] promised land
[D] Oh, who will come and go with me?
I am bound for [A] the promised [D] land
[A] [D]
For all those wide [A] extended [D] plains shine on eternal [A]
day
[D] There God the sun forever reigns and [A] scatters night [D] away
I am bound for the [A] promised land
I [D] am bound for the [A] promised land
[D] Oh, who will come and go with me?
I am bound [A] for the promised [D]
land
[A] [D]
No chill in winds nor poisonous breath can reach that helpful [A] shore
[D] Sickness and sorrow, pain and death are felt [A] and feared [D] no more
I am bound for the promised [A]
land
[D] I am bound for the promised [A]
land
[D] Oh, who will come and go with me?
I am bound [A] for the [D] promised land
[A] [D]
When shall I reach [A] that happy [D] place and be forever [A] blessed?
When [D] shall I see my father's face and in [A] his bosom [D] rest?
I am bound for the promised [A] land
[D] I am bound for the [A] promised land
[D] Oh, who will come and go with me?
I am bound for [A] the promised
[E] [D] land
I want you boys to realize that I hit one of the mellowest notes I ever hit in my life on the end of that song.
How about that?
Is that pretty good, Jimmy?
[N]
