Key:
C G They were down by the river on
D G that Lincoln County shore
C G Singing Peace In The Valley and
D G preaching up a storm
G There was a crowd gathered down by the river Where me and Benny Thompson used to play
C I wondered if they had enough a water
G To wash old Lester Harper's sins away
D Cause I heard Miss Ida whisper he's
G too lost to save
G Well they would sing and it would rain and it was frightening Some things are hard to understand when you're eight
C I can still hear the thunder and see the lightning
Continues after the ad
G When Preacher Hayes raised his hands to pray
D I could feel my body tremble cause I
G was so afraid
C G Yeah they were down by the river
D G on that Lincoln County shore
C G Singing Peace In The Valley and
D G preaching up a storm [Instrumental]
C G D G C G D G
G I was there but I could barely hear the sermon I was scared and didn't care to get up close
C I heard him tell 'em something was a burning
G And then he shouted something about a ghost
D And when they walked down in the water
G Sister Harper hollered please don't let him go
C G Well they were down by the river
D G on that Lincoln County shore
C G Singing Peace In The Valley and
D G preaching up a storm
C G They were down by the river on
D G that Lincoln County shore
C G Singing Peace In The Valley and
D G preaching up a storm
C G They were down by the river on
D G that Lincoln County shore
C G Singing Peace In The Valley and
D G preaching up a storm
