[E]
There's a place dear to me where [A] I'm longing to [E] be
With my friends at the old country [B] church
[F#m] There [E] with mother we went and [A] our son did [E] we stay
With our friends at [B] the old country [E] church
Precious years [B] of [E] memories
Oh [G#m] what [B] joy they bring [E] to me
How I long [A] to be with [E] my friends at [B] the old country [E] church
As a small country boy how my [A] heart beat with [E] joy
When I knelt in that old country [B] church
And [E] the Savior above in His [A] wonder
[E] Saved my soul at the [B] old [E] country church
Precious years [B] of
[E] memories
Oh [B] what joy
[E] they bring to me
How I long to
[A] be with my [E] friends at [B] the old country
[E] church
How I wish that today all [A] the people [E] would pray
As we prayed in that old country [B] church
If [E] they'd only confess Jesus [A] surely [E] would bless
As He did in [B] the old country [E] church
Precious years [B] of [E] memories
Oh what [B] joy they bring to [E] me
How I long to
[A] be with [E] my friends at [B] the old [E] country church
Oh my thoughts make me weep for [A] so many [E] now sleep
In that grave near the old country [B] church
May [E] I rest with my friends in [A] that grave in [E] the years
In the grave near [B] the old country [E] church
Precious years [B] of
[E] memories
Sweet memories
Oh what [B] joy they [E] bring to me
How I long to
[A] be with [E] my friends at [B] the old country [E] church
[N] I'm going to play the fiddle here one of these mornings
Like my old days down there
Sam would have known I used to play the fiddle
[C#]
Didn't I Sam?
Me too
Yeah, I used to have to, let's put it that way
Played the steel, the fiddle and all
Sam was the rhythm [A#] man, wasn't he?
