[Intro]
D G
D G
[Verse 1]
D A
We were white and they were black
Bm A G
And our lives, they were divided by the railroad tracks
D A
But we'd meet up every mornin' at that riverbend
Bm A G
That's where I learned about Jesus from my only black friend
Em A
And sometimes we'd sit and stare up at the sky
Em A
And I could see the hope of heaven in his eyes
[Chorus]
G
In the land where the cotton grows
F#m A
In a time when change came slow
G F#m Em C A
Just beyond the point of no return
G
A white boy and a black old man
F#m A
On the tracks walking hand in hand
G F#m Em C G
It's where I come to understand and learn
A
Where the cross don't burn
[Interlude]
D G
D G
[Verse 2]
D A
He'd Tell me money doens't matter, nor the color of your skin
Bm A G
You can stumble, even fall and still get up again
D A
'Cause it ain't about the deeds, good or bad that we have done
Bm A G F#m
All we have to do is love to be disciples of the Son
Em A
And we'd join hands and bow our heads to pray
Em A
And he told me that he loved me every day
[Chorus]
G
In the land where the cotton grows
F#m A
In a time when change came slow
G F#m Em C A
Just beyond the point of no return
G
A white boy and a black old man
F#m A
On the tracks walking hand in hand
G F#m Em C G
It's where I come to understand and learn
A
Where the cross don't burn
[Interlude]
D G
D G
[Bridge]
D A
Yeah, we're all gathered here this mornin' at this riverbend
Bm A G
To say our last goodbyes to my very best friend
Em A
As his ashes slowly float away
Em A
We know it's only 'til we meet again someday
[Chorus]
G
In the land where the cotton grows
F#m A
In a time when change came slow
G F#m Em C A
Just beyond the point of no return
G
A young boy and a kind old man
F#m A
On the tracks walking hand in hand
G F#m Em C G
It's where I come to understand and learn
A
Where the cross don't burn
[Interlude]
