Описание к видео Poor Wayfaring Stranger | peacedozer acoustic guitar cover

Jos Slovick's haunting rendition of this song in the World War 1 movie '1917' has stuck with me ever since I heard it. It's my hope that these colorized photos from WW1 help you realize just how pointless this brother war was, and make you wonder: who wants us fighting like this today? This is a traditional American folk song, so there are all sorts of versions and verses. I picked and chose my favorites, find those and the chords below as always.
Guitar: Taylor 814ce
Vocals microphone: SM7B (with Cloudlifter)

Lyrics & chords:
(standard tuning)
Em
I am a poor wayfaring stranger
Am B
I'm travelin' through this world of woe
Em
Yet there's no sickness, toil, or danger
A B7 Em
In that bright land to which I go

C G
I'm going there to see my father
C G B7
I'm going there no more to roam
Em
I'm only going over Jordan
Am B7 Em
I'm only going over home

Em
I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
Am B
I know my way is rough and steep
Em
But golden fields lie just before me
Am B7 Em
Where weary eyes no more shall weep

C G
I'm going home to see my mother
C G B7
And all my loved ones who've gone on
Em
I'm only going over Jordan
Am B7 Em
I'm only going over home

Em
I want to sing salvation's story
Am B
in concert with the blood-washed band
Em
I want to wear a crown of Glory
Am B7 Em
when I get home to that good land

C G
I'm going home to see my brothers
C G B7
they passed before me one by one
Em
I'm only going over Jordan
Am B7 Em
I'm only going over home

Em
I'll soon be free from every trial
Am B
This form will rest beneath the sod
Em
I'll drop the cross of self-denial
Am B7 Em
And enter in my home with God

C G
I'm going home to see my Savior
C G B7
To sing his praises forever more
Em
I'm only going over Jordan
Am B7 Em
I'm only going over home

C G
I'm going there to see my Savior
C G B7
Who shed for me His precious blood
Em
I'm only going over Jordan
Am B7 Em
I'm only going over home

I changed lots of chords and lyrics, but this was my starting point: https://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/...
