        F                  G 
She's a little overdressed 
       F                C 
But it never hurts to shine 
      F                G 
She invokes the turtle dove 
     F                Am 
She awaits the number nine 
          Em          F               G 
Standing alone in the grey of the morning 


    C        F              G 
But soon the riders come to wait 
         F                    C 
And they take their papers out 
     F               G 
They do not know the girl 
         F                    Am 
But they know that she's about 
            C                 G 
Keeping the light and the warning

And the bus comes like thun--der 
                    Dsus2 C 
And the doves rise around her 
                       Gm      C  F 
And she don't mind the winter 
             G           Am 
'Cause she's workin' for Jesus 
          Dm          F 
And she's workin' for love 
          G           C 
And she's workin' for love

          F                G 
There's a clock beside the bed 
          F            C 
There's a bible on the stand 
         F               G 
She will come home after dark 
         F                    Am 
She will take the book in hand 
            Em            F             G 
Feeling the grains of the black leather binding 


    C       F                G 
And so, she speaks to me sometimes 
   F                      C 
Of flesh and mortal chains 
    F               G 
And where the ashes go 
        F                  Am 
And the spirit that remains 
            C                G 
Rising like mist, see it shining

And her words sound like thun--der 
                   Dsus2  C 
And the spirit has found her 
                     Gm       C  F 
And she knows how to reach me 
             G           Am 
'Cause she's workin' for Jesus 
          Dm          F 
And she's workin' for love 
          G           C 
And she's workin' for love

             F               G 
Well, I have set my foot upon 
    F                      C 
The road of black and white 
       F                   G 
I have passed the gates of dawn 
     F                   Am 
I am making for the light 
            Em          F            G 
Barring the door on the darkness and sorrow 


    C      F             G 
But she is somewhere up ahead 
       F                  C 
She is far beyond my reach 
        F                 G 
She has walked across the sea 
       F                    Am 
She is sleeping on the beach 
          C             G 
Bordering time and tomorrow

And her days pass in won---der 
                  Dsus2  C 
And the angels surround her 
                   Gm       C  F 
And she don't even miss me 
             G           Am 
'Cause she's workin' for Jesus 
          Dm          F 
And she's workin' for love

          G           C      G 
And she's workin' for love

And she's workin' for love 
          F           C      
And she's workin' for love
