Verse
    Am                            C/G
Way down in Black River, where my family is from
          Am                                 C/G
They been workin' on a building that's gonna add lots o' sun
                 F                  G              C/G
They been layin' bricks, every time Sunday mornin' comes 
        F           G                   C/G
Singin' songs about faith and salvation
Chorus
                    F                   C/G
They say "we're all pilgrims, we're all strangers,
        G                F         C/G
In this land, we're just travelin' through"
      F                                 C/G
Oh so do ya lord, would you remember me do ya lord
         G     F        C/G
When I'm way beyond the blue
Verse
        Am                                  C/G
Well my brothers, me, and my cousins had an early theological start
Am                                         C/G
Learnin' them Black River gospel hymns and singin' em' all by heart
              F             G            C/G
We were up on stage, like a sacrifice to God
                          F             G              C/G
Well that's the price you pay, when you grow up in the south
Chorus
                F                   C/G
Cause we're all pilgrims, we're all strangers,
        G                F         C/G
In this land, we're just travelin' through
      F                                 C/G
Oh so do ya lord, would you remember me do ya lord
         G     F        C/G
When I'm way beyond the blue
Bridge
Dm                             Am
When I was a young man, Black River I did leave
Dm                                 Am 
Spirit of the open country started, callin' to me
     F                  G                 C/G
So I set out across the continent with my friends
         F             G                 Am            
Oh Black River I don't think I can do it again
             F                 G                      C/G
Cause I know now that all good things must come to an end
Chorus
              F                   C/G
And we're all pilgrims, we're all strangers,
        G                F         C/G
In this land, we're just travelin' through
      F                                 C/G
Oh so do ya lord, would you remember me do ya lord
          G           F                  C/G
Believin' boy in that southern Methodist pew 
        F                                 C/G
Oh yeah do ya lord, would you remember me do ya lord
         G     F        C/G
When I'm way beyond the blue
           G     F           C/G  G  F G  C/G  
Cause I am way beyond the blue
