• Difficulty: Beginner

C
There's a village hidden deep in the valley,
F     C     F    C
among the pine trees half forlorn.
           Em
And there on a sunny morning,
    F      G  C
little Jimmy Brown was born.

#1.     C         F
(Bells sound:Bong, Bong, Bong, Bong)
F                            C
All the chapel bells were ringing, in the little valley town,
                   C7         F
and the songs that they were singing, was for baby Jimmy Brown.
               A7            Dm Bb
and the little congregation prayed for guidance from above,
           F               C7
'Lead us not into temptation, bless this hour of meditation,
            F
guide him with eternal love.'

#2.
C
There's a village hidden deep in the valley,
 F     C     F   C
beneath the mountains high above.
               Em
And there, twenty years thereafter,
   F   G    C
Jimmy was to meet his love.

#3.(Bells:)
F                              C
All the chapel bells were ringing, 'twas a great day in his life,
                    C7           F
cause the songs that they were singing were for Jimmy and his wife.
               A7            Dm  Bb
Then the little congregation prayed for guidance from above,
           F                C7
'Lead us not into temptation, bless, oh Lord this celebration,
                F
may their lives be filled with love.'

#4.
C
From the village hidden deep in the valley,
  F   C    F    C
one rainy morning dark and gray
             Em
a soul winged its way to Heaven,
F        G    C
Jimmy Brown had passed away.

#5.(Bells)
F                          C
Just a lonely bell was ringing, in the little valley town,
                  C7         F
'twas farewell that it was singing, to our little Jimmy Brown.

OUTRO:
F             A7            Dm  Bb
And the little congregation prayed for guidance from above.
           F                C7
'Lead us not into temptation, may his soul find the salvation,
           F
of Thy Great Eternal Love.
