Tyler Childers Lyrics




[Intro]
G     D      G  D   G   D     G   D
 Hallelujah,        jubilee
G     D      G  D   G   D     G   D
 Hallelujah,        jubilee
 
[Verse 1]
G    D                                            G
  He stands behind the pulpit, he's calling out a line
  D                                             A
Responds to congregation, just a little way's behind
D                                                   G      F
Echoes down the streets of gold, through the Pearly Gates
D                                  A              D
  Dribbles over the Jordan, and it goes on by the banks
 
[Verse 2]
     D                                            G    F
He's rattling a Werther's, on his dentures in the pew
     D                                           A
He's holding down the bass, it's a little out of tune
        D                                                G    F
But his heart is in the hymnal, and that's all a boy can do
D                             A                 D
Make a joyful sound, till the rest have come to roost
 
[Chorus]
G     D      G   D
 Hallelujah, jubilee
      E              A
I can hear the angel band
      D   (G)             G      F
I was bli--nd  but now I   see
         D
And I'll jump right in amongst them
       A               D
When I reach the glory land
 
[Solo]
D  -  G D  -  G D  -  G D
 
[Verse 3]
G      D                                               G        F
  She's shouting in the aisle, she's shaking something fierce
D                                                    A
  Feels so good to be here, after all these faithful years
D                                                            G       F
  Just took a walk with Jesus, just touched his nail-scarred hands
D                                 A                 D
  Didn't even bother her, that he ain't a blue-eyed man
 
[Chorus]
G     D      G   D
 Hallelujah, jubilee
      E              A
I can hear the angel band
      D   (G)             G      F
I was bli--nd  but now I   see
         D
And I'll jump right in amongst them
       A               D
When I reach the glory land

[Verse 4]
        D                                              G
There's Hindus, Jews, and Muslims, and Baptists of all kinds
D                                                        A
Catholic girls and Amish boys, who've left their plows behind
D                                      G      F
Up there in the choir, singing side by  side
D                                A                 D
Wondering why exactly, they been fussing the whole time
 
[Chorus]
G     D      G   D
 Hallelujah, jubilee
      E              A
I can hear the angel band
      D   (G)             G      F
I was bli--nd  but now I   see
         D
And I'll jump right in amongst them
       A               D
When I reach the glory land
 
[Outro]
G     D      G  D   G   D     G   D
 Hallelujah,        jubilee
G     D      G  D   G   D     G   D
 Hallelujah,        jubilee
G     D    G  D      G     D      G  D
I can hear       the angel band
G     D
 Hallelujah
