Chords with lyrics
Verse:
D MajorD G+G
There's a little mountain church in my thoughts of yesterday,
D MajorD A augmentedA
Where friends and family gathered for the Lord,
D MajorD G+G
There an old fashioned preacher taught the straight and narrow way,
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
For what few coins the congregation could afford,
G+G
Dressed in all our Sunday best, we sat on pews of solid oak,
D MajorD A augmentedA
And I remember how our voices filled the air,
D MajorD G+G
How mama sounded like an angel on those high soprano notes,
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
And when the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.
Chorus:
G+G
Looking back now, that little mountain church house,
D MajorD A augmentedA
Has become my life's corner stone,
D MajorD G+G
It was there in that little mountain church house,
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
I first heard the word I've based my life upon.
Verse:
D MajorD G+G
At the all day Sunday singing, and dinner on the ground,
D MajorD A augmentedA
Many were the souls that were revived,
D MajorD G+G
While my brothers and my sisters, who've gone on to glory land,
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
Slept in peace in the maple grove nearby
Chorus: x2
G+G
Looking back now, that little mountain church house,
D MajorD A augmentedA
Has become my life's corner stone,
D MajorD G+G
It was there in that little mountain church house,
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
I first heard the word I've based my life upon.
