Valdy - Passin' Through

      
 
    C                             
 Passing through, passing through.
 
                            C7   
 Sometimes happy, sometimes blue,
 
             F        D   
 Glad that I ran into you.
 
          C                   G             C    
 Tell the people that you saw me passing through.

 I saw Jesus on the cross
 
       F             C   
 On a hill called Calvary
 
 I said "do you hate mankind
 
                          D    G 
 For what they?ve done to you?"
 
           C                C7   
 He said, "Talk of love not hate,
 
                   F                   D    
 There?s things to do and it's getting late.
 
           C                    G                C  
 We?re all brothers and we are only passing through.

 And I shivered with George Washington
 
           F                    C    
 One cold night down in Valley Forge,
 I said, "George, how come these soldiers fight so,
 
               D   G 
 They way they do?"
 
           C                    C7    
 He said, "Men will suffer, and fight,
 
                F                           D   
 Some will even die for what they think is right
 
       F                       G            C       
 Even though they know they're only passing through"
 
   C                              
 Passing through, passing through.
 
                            C7   
 Sometimes happy, sometimes blue,
 
             F        D   
 Glad that I ran into you.
 
          C                   G             C    
 Tell the people that you saw me passing through.

 So, if you see me passin? you by
 
         F                    C  
 And you stop there wondering why
 
                                        D  G 
 And you wish you could do some touring too
 
            C                          C7   
 Grab your suitcase and stick out your thumb
 
            F                     D   
 Thank your folks for all they?ve done
 
           C
