G D G
He stands behind the pulpit, he's calling out a line

Responds to congregation, just a little way's behind

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

I can hear the angel band

I was bli--nd but now I see

And I'll jump right in amongst them

When I reach the glory land

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]

There's Hindus, Jews, and Muslims, and Baptists of all kinds

Catholic girls and Amish boys, who've left their plows behind

Up there in the choir, singing side by side
D A D
Wondering why exactly, they been fussing the whole time
[Chorus]
