Swing low, sweet chariot,

Swing low, sweet chariot,  
               A7       D  
Comin' for to c arry me home.  

I looked over Jordan, and what did I see,  
Comin' for to carry me home.  
A band of angels comin' after me,  
Comin' for to carry me home.  

If you get there before I do,  

Comin' for to carry me home.  
Just tell my friends that I'm a comin' too.  
Comin' for to carry me home.  

I'm sometimes up and sometimes down,  
Comin' for to carry me home.  
But still my soul feels heavenly bound.  
Comin' for to carry me home.
