    There's a church in the valley by the wildwood, 
                       D7               G 
    no lovelier place in the dale, 
             C                               G 
    no spot is so dear to my childhood, 
               D                                       G 
    as the little brown church in the dale. 

Oh, come, come, come, come, 
                                                   D 
come to the church in the wildwood, 
                             D7                G 
oh, come to the church in the dale. 
         C                               G 
No spot is so dear to my childhood, 
           D                                       G 
as the little brown church in the dale. 

                 G                                         D 
    How sweet on a clear Sabbath morning 
                              D7               G 
    to listen to the clear ringing bell, 
          C                                G 
    it's tones so sweetly are calling, 
            D                                      G 
    oh, come to the church in the dale. 

Oh, come, come, come, come, 
                                                   D 
come to the church in the wildwood, 
                             D7                G 
oh, come to the church in the dale. 
         C                               G 
No spot is so dear to my childhood, 
           D                                       G 
as the little brown church in the dale. 

                  G                                        D 
    There, close by the side of a loved one, 
                                                D7                G 
    ?neath the trees where the wild flowers bloom, 
              C                                                   G 
    she sleeps, sweetly sleeps, ?neath the willow, 
          D                                 G 
    disturb not her rest in the tomb. 

Oh, come, come, come, come, 
                                                   D 
come to the church in the wildwood, 
                             D7                G 
oh, come to the church in the dale. 
         C                               G 
No spot is so dear to my childhood, 
           D                                       G 
as the little brown church in the dale. 

Oh, come, come, come, come, 
                                                   D 
come to the church in the wildwood, 
                             D7                G 
oh, come to the church in the dale. 
         C                               G 
No spot is so dear to my childhood, 
           D                                       G 
as the little brown church in the dale.
