Joseph's Son


As performed by The Crossing
As heard by d.baderman
  off _Dancing at the Crossroads_



(no chord - dropped D tuning - low D string...)
Oh where, oh where, is the carpenter?

Oh Father where - is Joseph's son?

I have looked high - and I have looked low

Oh tell me where, has the carpenter gone.

Dm              C                        Dm
He's gone, He's gone - to walk this wide land
                               Am
My son the truth, I'll tell to you
              Dm              C
He has twelve men - to walk beside him
                                  Dm
His Father's will, He has gone to do

                C                      Dm
And He traveled north, and he traveled south
                                 Am
No food nor drink - did pass his mouth
          Dm                  C
For forty days - in the wilderness
                          Dm
A carpenter, did pass his test

            C                     Dm
He traveled east, and he traveled west
                                   Am
O'er mountain high, through valley low
            Dm                     C
To heal the sick, the deaf and the blinded
                                   Dm
To shed His light, on our darkened soul


       -C-Dm-Am-Dm-C-Dm

             C                   Dm
Oh where, oh where, is the carpenter?
                             Am
Oh Father where, is Joseph's son?
           Dm               C
I hear the cries, I see the soldiers
                                    Dm
Oh tell me where, has the carpenter gone

                C                  Dm
He's gone, He's gone, to yon green garden
                               Am
Of his twelve men, to call but one
            Dm                       C
To pray for strength, for what lay before him
                                 Dm
Saying not my will, but Thine be done.
                C                 Dm
He's gone, He's gone, to yon high hill
                             Am
Gone to where, stood crosses three
             Dm                         C
He cried his last, 'neath the blackened sky
                                   Dm
And all alone died, on the curs-ed tree

          C                  Dm
A tomb so deep, in stones so cold
                                    Am
Laid there, men thought, no more to see
                Dm                  C
But just as the sun, returns in the morning
                                  Dm
He rose from death, and he set us free

             C                   Dm
Oh where, oh where, is the carpenter
                              Am
Oh Father where, is God's own Son?
            Dm                    C
My Son He's gone, where we cannot follow
                             Dm
But He'll return, to take us home.
