Billy Strings - Little White Church

Capo: 3rd fret

[Verse 1]
G
There’s a little white church in the valley
C G
That stands in my memory each day

And it seems I can hear the bells ringing
A7 D7
Though I am many miles away

[Verse 2]
G
And many times on Sunday morning
C G
That whole countryside would gather there

They would all kneel down by the altar
G C G D G
As they lifted up their voice in prayer

[Chorus]
G C
Oh the church in the valley that little white church
G D7
Is the place I love so well
G C
Now I’m sad and lonely yes I’m sad and lonely
G C G D G
For that little white church in the dell

[Verse 3]
G
They would sing the old song Rock of Ages
C G
Oh Christ let me hide myself in thee

And I know some of them are now waiting
A7 D7
Just o’er the dark and stormy sea

[Verse 4]
G
I know there troubles all are ended
C G
And happy forever they will be

They are waiting and watching up yonder
G C G D G
For the coming home of you and me

[Chorus]
G C
Oh the church in the valley that little white church
G D7
Is the place I love so well
G C
Now I’m sad and lonely yes I’m sad and lonely
G C G D G
For that little white church in the dell
G C
Now I’m sad and lonely yes I’m sad and lonely
G C G D G
For that little white church in the dell
