[Verse]
Am
Dear child of mine
Dm Am
You may never get this letter
E Am
I'm full of sorrow, but I had to get you back
Am
Scared I believe
Dm Am
I put you on this road to freedom
E Am Am
Far from Virginia on the rail underground
Am
Cloaked by the rain
Dm Am
That whispered there is just room for the baby
Am
So before one tear could fall
E Am
You were in a stranger's arms
Am Dm Am
Vanished with the wind carried north to Mason, Dixon
E Am
Just before they found me and they open all my scars
[Chorus]
C
By now the sun is shining
G Am
You've surely found a better place
F G Em
Broken all the chains around your soul
C
But don't, don't you worry
G Am
A ticket home is in my hand
F E7
To ride heaven's mercy railroad
Am
So blow whistle blow
D Am
Cause when I cross the river Jordan
Dm E7 Am
I'm going to find freedom of my own
[Solo]

[Verse]
Am
I'm nearing my journeys end
Dm Am
The will to strain and carry on
E7 Am
Past the troubled waters rising since that night
G D Dm
But just one moment I see a tunnel thats coming fast
Dm E7 Am
Darkness surrounds me, but soon their will be light
[Chorus]
C
By now the sun is shining
G Am
You've surely found a better place
F G Em
Broken all the chains around your soul
C
But don't, don't you worry
G Am
A ticket home is in my hand
F E7
To ride heaven's mercy railroad
Am
So blow whistle blow
D Am
Cause when I cross the river Jordan
Dm E7
I'm going to find freedom of my
Am
Blow whistle blow
D Am
Cause when I cross the river Jordan
E7
I'm going to find freedom of my
Am
Blow whistle blow
D Am Dm
Cause when I cross the river Jordan(that river)
E F
I'm going to find freedom of my own
[Outro]
F
Ticket home is in my hand
E Am
I can see my journeys end
Dm
I'm going to find (I'm going to find),(I'm going to find)
E7 Am
A freedom of my own
Am Dm Am F E7 Am
