The Three Bells

by The Browns, in the key of D

D
There's a village hidden deep in the valley
G
Among the 
D
pine trees 
G
half for-
D
-lorn
D
And there on a sunny morning
D
Little 
G
Jimmy Brown 
A
was 
D
born

G
All the chapel bells were ringing
G
In the little valley 
D
town
D
And the songs that they were singing
D7
Was for baby Jimmy 
G
Brown
G
And the little congregation
B7
Prayed for guidance from 
Em
above 
Am
Lead us not into 
G
temptation
G
Bless this hour of 
D7
meditation
D7
Guide him with eternal 
G
love

D
There's a village hidden deep in the valley
G
Beneath the 
D
mountains 
G
high 
D
above
D
And there, twenty years 
G
thereafter
G
Jimmy was to 
A
meet his 
D
love

G
All the chapel bells were ringing
G
Twas a great day in his 
D
life
D
Cause the songs that they were singing
D7
Were for Jimmy and his 
G
wife
G
Then the little congregation
B7
prayed for guidance from 
Em
above 
Am
Lead us not into 
G
temptation
G
Bless, oh Lord, this 
D7
celebration
D7
May their lives be filled with 
G
love

D
From the village hidden deep in the valley
G
One rainy 
D
morning 
G
dark and 
D
gray
D
A soul winged its way to heaven
G
Jimmy Brown had 
A
passed 
D
away

G
Just a lonely bell was ringing
G
In the little valley 
D
town
D
Twas farewell that it was singing
D7
to our little Jimmy 
G
Brown

G
And the little congregation
B7
Prayed for guidance from 
Am
above 
A
Lead us not into 
G
temptation
G
May his soul find the 
D7
salvation
D7
Of thy Great Eternal 
G
love
