Three Bells

D


[Verse 1]
D
There's a village hidden deep in the
 valley
  G       D          G       D
Among the pine trees half forlorn
D
And there on a sunny morning
D      G      A        D
Little Jimmy Brown was born
D                            
So his parents took him to the 
  G
chapel
     E7                  A
When he was only one day old
A       D
And the priest blessed the little 
fellow
         G     A      D          
Welcomed Jimmy to the fold  ( 
            G

[Chorus]
G
All the chapel bells were ringing
G                    D
in the little valley town
D                                 
And the song that they were 
  D7
singing
D7                  G
was for baby Jimmy Brown
G
And the little congregation
B7                          Em
   prayed for guidance from above
Am                      G    
  "Lead us not into temptation, 
                          D7
bless this hour of meditation"
D7                       G
"Guide him with eternal love"

[Verse 2]
D
There's a village hidden deep in the
 valley
   G        D         G     D
Beneath the mountains high above
D
And there, twenty years thereafter
      G      A        D
Jimmy was to meet his love
D                                 
Many friends were gathered in the 
G
chapel
    E7                     A
And many tears of joy were shed
   D
In June on a Sunday morning,
      G       A         D        
Jimmy and his wife were wed. (

[Chorus]
G
All the chapel bells were ringing,
G                        D
'twas a great day in his life
D                                 
for the song that they were 
  D7
singing
D7                     G
was for Jimmy and his wife
G
And the little congregation
B7                          Em
  prayed for guidance from above
Am                     G         
 "Lead us not into temptation, 
                     D7
bless with us this celebration"
 D7                            
"May their lives be filled with 
 G
love"


[Verse 3]
D
From the village hidden deep in the 
valley
    G     D       G        D
One rainy morning dark and gray
D
A soul winged its way to heaven
      G         A       D
Jimmy Brown had passed away
D                              G
Silent people gathered in the chapel
   E7                        A
To say farewell to their old friend
      D
Whose life had been like a flower
         G        A        D     
Budding, blooming till the end ( 
               G

Just a lonely bell was ringing
G                     D
in the little valley town
D                                 
and the song that they were 
   D7
singing
D7                     G         
was for good old Jimmy Brown 
          Ab
(little Jimmy Brown)
Ab
And the little congregation
C7                          Fm
  prayed for guidance from above
Bbm                    Ab        
 "Lead us not into temptation, 
                        Eb7
may his soul find the salvation
Eb7                  Ab
of thy great eternal love"
