[F#m] [D]
[G] [D] [A] [D]
There's a little mountain church in my thoughts [Gm] of yesterday
[D] Where friends and family gathered [A] for the Lord
[D] There an old-fashioned preacher taught the straight and [G] narrow way
For what few [D] calls a [A] congregation [D] could afford
Dressed in all our Sunday best we sit on pews of solid [G] oak
And [D] I remember how our voices [A] filled the air
How [D] mama sounded like an angel on those high [G] soprano notes
And [D] when the Romans [A] called up yonder I'll [D] be there
Looking [Am] back now [D] that little mountain [G] church house
[D] Has become my life's [A] cornerstone
It [D] was there in that little [G] mountain church house
I [D] first heard the [A] word and based my [D] life upon
[G] [D]
[A] [D]
[G] [D] [A]
[D] At the all-day Sunday singin' and dinner on [G] the ground
[D] Many were the souls that [A] were revived
While [D] the brothers and the sisters who'd gone on to [G] glory land
[D] Slept in peace [A] in the main road [D] nearby
Looking [Am] back [D] now that little [G] mountain church house
[D] Has become my life's [A] cornerstone
It [D] was there in that little [G] mountain church house
I [D] first heard the [A] word and based my [D] life upon
[Am] Looking back [D] now that little [G] mountain church house
[D] Has become my [Bm] life's [A] cornerstone
[D] It was there in that little [G] mountain church house
I [D] first heard the [A] word and based my [D] life upon
