{Vere 1}
F F7 Bb F
I'm satisfied with just a cottage below
F/A Ddim7 C7 E7 F
A lit - tle silver and a little gold
C7 Caug F F7 Bb F
But in that city where the ransomed will shine
Dm C7 Gm C7 F Bb F
I want a gold one that's silver lined
{Chorus}
Gm7 F7/A Bb Gm F
I've got a mansion, just over the hilltop
Dm C7 Gm C7 F
In that bright land, where we'll never grow old
Gm7 F7/A Bb Gm F
And some - day yonder, we will never more wander
Dm C7 Gm C7 F Bb F
But walk on streets that are purest gold
{Vere 2}
F F7 Bb F
Though often tempted, tormented and tested
F/A Ddim7 C7 E7 F
And like the prophet, my pillow's a stone
C7 Caug F F7 Bb F
And though I find here no permanent dwelling
Dm C7 Gm C7 F Bb F
I know He'll give me a mansion my own
[Repeat Chorus]
{Vere 3}
F F7 Bb F
Don't think me poor or deserted or lonely
F/A Ddim7 C7 E7 F
I'm not dis - couraged I'm heaven bound
C7 Caug F F7 Bb F
I'm just a pilgrim in search of a city
Dm C7 Gm C7 F Bb F
I want a man - sion, a harp, and a crown
[Repeat Chorus]
