Crying in the Chapel

You saw me crying in the (F6)chapel;

the tears I shed were tears of (C)joy.

I know the meaning (A7)of (D7)contentment,

now (Dm7)I am (D7)happy (F6)with the (C)Lord.

Just a plain and simple (F6)chapel,

where humble people go to (C)pray:

I pray the Lord that (A7)I'll grow (D7)stronger,

then as I live from day to (C)day.

(C7)I've (F)searched and I've (Fm6)searched, (Ab7)but (C)I (A7)couldn't (D7)find no (Am7)way on earth to (D7)gain peace of (G7)mind.

Now I'm happy in the (F6)chapel,

where people are of one (C)accord;

we gather (A7)in the (D7)chapel, just to sing and praise the (C)Lord.

Ev'ry sinner looks for (F6)something the that will put his heart at (C)ease.

I There is only (A7)one true (D7)answer:

now (Dm7)He must (D7)get down (F6)on his (C)knees.

Meet your neighbor in the (F6)chapel,

where join with him in tears of (C)joy;

you'll know the meaning (A7)of (D7)contentment,

then you'll be happy with the (C)Lord.

(C7)You'll (F)search and you'll (Fm6)search (Ab7)but (C)you'll (A7)never (D7)find no (Am7)way on earth to (D7)gain peace of (G7)mind.

Take your troubles to the (F6)chapel,

where get down on your knees and (C)pray;

your burdens (A7)will be (D7)lighter, and you'll surely find the (C)Lord.

Ev'ry sinner looks for (C)way.
