Ricky Skaggs – Little Mountain Church House (Guitar)

D                                        G
There's a little mountain church in my thoughts of yesterday,

        D                                  A
Where friends and family gathered for the Lord,

           D                                   G
There an old fashioned preacher taught the straight and narrow way,

                D              A             D
For what few coins the congregation could afford,

                                           G
Dressed in all our Sunday best, we sat on pews of solid oak,

         D                               A
And I remember how our voices filled the air,

          D                              G
How mama sounded like an angel on those high soprano notes,

              D                 A               D
And when the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.

                                          G
Looking back now, that little mountain church house,

        D                      A
Has become my life's corner stone,

        D                              G
It was there in that little mountain church house,

          D                    A            D
I first heard the word I've based my life upon.

D                                   G
At the all day Sunday singing, and dinner on the ground,

D                                 A
Many were the souls that were revived,

           D                                   G
While my brothers and my sisters, who've gone on to glory land,

          D           A             D
Slept in peace in the maple grove nearby

                                          G
Looking back now, that little mountain church house,

        D                      A
Has become my life's corner stone,

        D                              G
It was there in that little mountain church house,

          D                    A            D
I first heard the word I've based my life upon.
