Charley Pride - Little delta church

^CAmazing ^C7Grace how ^Fsweet the ^Csound that saved a wretch like ^G7me [Verse 1] Along the ^Criver by the road ^Fnear a Mississippi ^Ctown Was a place where my family loved to ^G7go Was the ^Cchurch house with a steeple and was ^Falways filled with people Cause the ^Cneighbors came from ^G7miles and miles ^Caround

As a boy and as a man in the ^Ffront row I would ^Cstand And raised my voice to God up in the ^G7sky Every^Cbody joined the singing till the ^Flittle church was ringing With ^Csongs like In ^G7The Sweet By And ^CBy

In the sweet by and ^G7by We shall meet on that beautiful ^Cshore Though I've long been lost in sin ^FI can dream it back ^Cagain To the little church that's ^G7nestled in my ^Cmind

In the early part of May delta ^Fnights were hard to ^Ctake So we opened up the windows and the ^G7doors The con^Cgregation's sat and fanned some with ^Fbibles in their ^Chands Out into the night the ^G7words of God would ^Cpour

^FHow they ever flood my ^Csoul In the stillness ^Fof the ^Cmidnight Precious ^G7sacred scenes ^Cunfold

In the sweet by and ^G7by We shall meet on that beautiful ^Cshore Though I've long been lost in sin ^FI can dream me back ^Cagain To the little church that's ^G7nestled in my ^Fmin^Cd
