[Intro]
D  G  D  A7  D
 
[Verse 1]
            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
 
[Verse 2]
            D                                           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 momma sounded like an angel on those high soprano notes
          D                 A              D
When the roll is called up yonder I'll be there
 
[Chorus]
          D                             G
Looking back now that little mountain church house
      D                       A
Has become my life's corner stone
        D             D7               G
It was there in that little mountain church house
          D                   A             D
I first heard the word I've based my life upon
 
[Instrumental]
  D  G  D  A7  D  G  D  A7  D
 
[Verse 3]
        D                                         G
At the all day Sunday singing and dinner on the ground
  D                               A7
Many were the souls that were revived
          D                                               G
While my brothers and my sisters who've gone on to glory land
           D           A7              D
Slept in peace in the maple grove nearby
 
[Chorus]
        D                               G
Looking back now that little mountain church house
       D                      A
Has become my life's corner stone
         D             D7              G
It was there in that little mountain church house
          D                   A              D
I first heard the word I've based my life upon
 
[Outro]
 D  G  D  A7  D  G  D  A7  D
