[Intro]
G D G D G D G D
Hallelujah, jubilee
G D G D G D G D
Hallelujah, jubilee
[Verse 1]
G D G
He stands behind the pulpit, he's calling out a line
D A
Responds to congregation, just a little way's behind
D G F
Echoes down the streets of gold, through the Pearly Gates
D A D
Dribbles over the Jordan, and it goes on by the banks
[Verse 2]
D G F
He's rattling a Werther's, on his dentures in the pew
D A
He's holding down the bass, it's a little out of tune
D G F
But his heart is in the hymnal, and that's all a boy can do
D A D
Make a joyful sound, till the rest have come to roost
[Chorus]
G D G D
Hallelujah, jubilee
E A
I can hear the angel band
D (G) G F
I was bli--nd but now I see
D
And I'll jump right in amongst them
A D
When I reach the glory land
[Solo]
D G D G D G D
[Verse 3]
G D G F
She's shouting in the aisle, she's shaking something fierce
D A
Feels so good to be here, after all these faithful years
D G F
Just took a walk with Jesus, just touched his nail-scarred hands
D A D
Didn't even bother her, that he ain't a blue-eyed man
[Chorus]
G D G D
Hallelujah, jubilee
E A
I can hear the angel band
D (G) G F
I was bli--nd but now I see
D
And I'll jump right in amongst them
A D
When I reach the glory land
[Instrumental Chorus]

[Verse 4]
D G
There's Hindus, Jews, and Muslims, and Baptists of all kinds
D A
Catholic girls and Amish boys, who've left their plows behind
D G F
Up there in the choir, singing side by side
D A D
Wondering why exactly, they been fussing the whole time
[Chorus]
G D G D
Hallelujah, jubilee
E A
I can hear the angel band
D G G F
I was bli--nd but now I see

And I'll jump right in amongst them

When I reach the glory land

[Verse 1]
He stands behind the pulpit
He's callin' out a line
Responds to congregation
Just a little ways behind
Echoes down the streets of gold
Through the Pearly Gates
Dribbles o'er the Jordan
And it goes on by the banks
[Verse 2]
He's rattlin' a Werther's
On his dentures in the pew
He's holdin' down the bass
It's a little out of tune
But his heart is in the hymnal
And that's all a boy can do
Make a joyful sound
'Til the rest have come to roost
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, jubilee
I can hear the angel band
I was blind, but now I see
And I'll jump right in amongst them
When I reach the glory land
[Verse 3]
She's shoutin' in the aisle
She's shakin' somethin' fierce
Feels so good to be here
After all these faithful years
Just took a walk with Jesus
Just touched his nail-scarred hands
Didn't even bother her
That he ain't a blue-eyed man
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, jubilee
I can hear the angel band
I was blind, but now I see
And I'll jump right in amongst them
When I reach the glory land
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
There's Hindus, Jews, and Muslims
And Baptists of all kinds
Catholic girls and Amish boys
Who've left their plows behind
Up there in the choir
Singin' side by side
Wonderin' why exactly
They've been fussin' the whole time
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, jubilee
I can hear the angel band
I was blind, but now I see
And I'll jump right in amongst them
When I reach the glory land
[Outro]
Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Jubilee
I can hear
The angel band
Hallelujah
