Jerry Lee Lewis - The Old Country Church lyrics

rate me

The Old Country Church

The Statler Brothers

G C G

There's a place near to me where I'm longing to be

Em D7

With my friends at the old country church

G C G

There with mother we went and our Sundays were spent

Em G

With my friends at the old country church

D7 G

Precious years of memories oh what joy they bring to me

C

How I long that place to be

G D7 G

With my friends at the old country church

C G

As a small country boy how my heart beat with joy

Em D7

When I knelt in the old country church

G C G

And the Savior above by His wonderful love

Em D7 G

Saved my soul in the old country church

repeat #2

C G

Of't my thoughts make me weep for so many now sleep

Em D7

In their graves near the old country church

G C G

And sometime I may rest with the friends I love best

Em D7 G

In a grave near the old country church
