In A Country Churchyard Lyrics And Guitar Chords, Chris De Burg.A beautiful love song by Chris,I think that this one would have made a great folk song and if Chris had written it with a folk air it would be around for hundred's of years like some of the ones I have here.but still a beauty , thats why I have included it. if anybody has the sheet music for ''In A Country Church Yard'' please send it to me.
 
 

In[C] a country[G] Churchyard there's a[F] preacher with his[C] people
[F]Gathered all a[C]round to[F] join a man and [G]woman
[C]Spring is here and[G] turtledoves are[F] singing from the[C] steeple
[F]Bees are in the[C] flowers[F] growing in the[G] graveyard
And [E]over the[Am] hill where the[G] river meets the[C] mill
A [F]lovely girl is[C] coming down to[F] give her hand[G] upon her wedding [C]day
 
Dressed in simple white and wearing flowers in her hair
Music as she walks slowly to the alter
And picking up his bible then the preacher turns towards her
Will you take this man to be your wedded husband
To honour and love in the eyes of God above
Now let the people sing with me these words to live forever in your heart
[Chorus]
[f]Let[G]] your[Am] lo[Em]ve[F] shine[C] on for[Am] we are the[Em] stars in the[F] sky
[F]Let[G] your[Am] lo[Em]ve[F] shine[C] strong un[F]til the[G] day you [F]fly a[C]way
 
Many years have falling on that golden country morning
The graveyard's overgrown the chourch lies in ruins
Ivy on the walls and ravins wheeling round above me
As I make my way towards the last remaining headstone
I fell to my knees read the lines beneath the leaves
And suddenely it seemed to me I heard these words like singing in the trees
[Repeat Chorus]
