Dolly Parton - Church In The Wildwood

[Verse]
F C
There’s a church in the valley by the wild-wood
C7 F F7
No lovelier spot in the dale
Bb F
No place is so dear to my childhood
C C7 F
As the little brown church in the vale

[Chorus]
F
Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come
C
Come to the church in the wild-wood
C7 F F7
Oh, come to the church in the dale
Bb F
No spot is so dear to my childhood
D D7 F
As the little brown church in the vale

[Verse 2]
F C
How sweet on a clear, Sabbath morn-ing
C7 F F7
To list to the clear ringing bell
Bb F
It’s tones so sweetly are calling
C C7 F
Oh, come to the church in the dale

[Chorus]
F
Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come
C
Come to the church in the wild-wood
C7 F F7
Oh, come to the church in the dale
Bb F
No spot is so dear to my childhood
C C7 F
As the little brown church in the vale

[Verse 3]
F C
There, close by the church in the val-ley
C7 F F7
Lies one that I loved so well
Bb F
She sleeps, sweetly sleeps, ’neath the willow
C C7 F
Dis-turb not her rest in the vale

[Chorus]
F
Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come
C
Come to the church in the wild-wood
C7 F F7
Oh, come to the church in the dale
Bb F
No spot is so dear to my childhood
C C7 F
As the little brown church in the vale

[Verse 4]
F C
There, close by the side of that loved one
C7 F F7
To trees where the wild flowers bloom
Bb F
When the farewell hymn shall be chanted
C C7 F
I shall rest by her side in the tomb

[Chorus]
F
Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come
C
Come to the church in the wild-wood
C7 F F7
Oh, come to the church in the dale
Bb F
No spot is so dear to my childhood
C C7 F
As the little brown church in the vale

[Verse 5]
F C
From the church in the valley by the wild-wood
C7 F F7
When day fades away into night
Bb F
I would fain from this spot of my childhood
C C7 F
Wing my way to the mansions of light

[Chorus]
F
Oh, Come, Come, Come, Come
C
Come to the church in the wild-wood
C7 F F7
Oh, come to the church in the dale
Bb F
No spot is so dear to my childhood
C C7 F
As the little brown church in the vale
