Elvis Presley – Crying In The Chapel (Ukulele)

G                        Am
You saw me crying in the chapel

D                              G    C  G
the tears I shed were tears of joy.

G                        Am
I know the meaning of contentment,

D                      G     C  G
now I`m happy with the Lord.

                        Am
Just a plain and simple chapel,

D                         G     C  G
where humble people go to pray.

G                                 Am
I pray the Lord that I`ll grow stronger,

D                     G    C  G  G7
as I live from day to day.

     C                  Am
I`ve searched, and I`ve searched,

    G          Em
but I couldn`t find,

    C                             D
the way on earth to gain peace of mind.

                     Am
Now I`m happy in the chapel,

D                         G     C  G
where people are on one accord.

G                     Am
Yes, we gather in the chapel,

D                           G     C  G
just to sing and praise the Lord.

      C                Am
Ev'ry sinner looks for something

D                          G    C  G
That will put his heart at ease

G                      Am
There is only one true answer

D                       G     C  G
He must get down on his knees

                          Am
Meet your neighbor in the chapel

D                         G   C  G
Join with him in tears of joy

G                             Am
You'll know the meaning of contentment

D                             G    C  G  G7
Then you'll be happy with the Lord

       C                  Am
You`ll search, and you`ll search,

    G            Em
but you`ll never find,

   C                             D
no way on earth to gain peace of mind.

                          Am
Take your troubles to the chapel,

D                          G     C  G
get down on your knees and pray.

G                         Am
Then your burdens will be lighter,

D                          G    C  G
and you`ll surely find the way.
