G                           Am     D                                 G  C G
1.   You saw me crying in the chapel,   the tears I shed were tears of joy.
                              Am       D                          G    C G
    I know the meaning of contentment,  now I'm happy with the Lord.


                             Am   D                            G    C G
2. Just a plain and simple chapel, where humble people go to pray.
                                     Am      D                       G    C G G7
    I pray the Lord that I'll grow stronger,  as I live from day to day.
             C               Am           G          Em
    I've searched, and I've searched, but I coudn't find,
         C                             D
    the way on earth to gain peace of mind.


                         Am     D                          G  C G
3. Now I'm happy in the chapel, where people are on one accord.
                            Am     D                               G   C G G7
    Yes, we gather in the chapel,   just to sing and praise the Lord.
             C                Am           G            Em
    You'll search, and you'll search, but you'll never find,
        C                              D
    no way on earth to gain peace of mind.


                               Am    D                              G   C G
4. Take your troubles to the chapel,  get down on your knees and pray.
                                Am        D                             G   C G
    Then your burdens will be lightened,   and you'll surely find the way.
