Ricky Skaggs
Little Mountain Church House
Written by Jim Rushing and Carl Jackson
Recorded by Ricky Skaggs

Intro.:  | (D)  | (D)  | (G)  | (G)  | (D)  | (A)  | (D)  | (D)--

There's a (D)little mountain church in my thoughts of yester-(G)day
where (D)friends and family gathered for the (A)Lord
There're an (D)old fashioned preacher, taught the straight and narrow (G)way
for what you (D)call the conger-(A)gation could afford (D)

Dressed in (D)all out Sunday best, we sat on pews of solid oak (G)
And I re-(D)member how our voices filled the (A)air
How mama (D)sounded like an angel on those high soprano (G)notes
When the (D)roll is called up (A)yonder, I'll be there (D)

(Chorus)
Looking (D)back now, that little mountain (G)church house
has be-(D)come my life's corner (A)stone
It was (D)there in that little mountain (G)church house
I first (D)heard the word I've (A)based my life up-(D)on

Inst.:  | (D)  | (D)  | (G)  | (G)  | (D)  | (D)  | (A)  | (A)  |
        | (D)  | (D)  | (G)  | (G)  | (D)  | (A)  | (D)  | (D) ---

At the (D)all day Sunday singings and dinner on the ground, (G)
(D)many were the souls that were re-(A)vived,
While the (D)brothers and the sisters, who've gone on to glory (G)land,
slept in (D)piece in the (A)maple grove near-(D)by.

(Chorus)
Looking (D)back now, that little mountain (G)church house
has be-(D)come my life's corner (A)stone
It was (D)there in that little mountain (G)church house
I first (D)heard the word I've (A)based my life up-(D)on

(Chorus)
Looking (D)back now, that little mountain (G)church house
has be-(D)come my life's corner (A)stone
It was (D)there in that little mountain (G)church house
I first (D)heard the word I've (A)based my life up-(D)on

Outro.:  | (D)  | (D)  | (G)  | (G)  | (D)  | (D)  | (A)  | (A)  |
         | (D)  | (D)  | (G)  | (G)  | (D)  | (A)  | (D)  | (D)  |
          … repeat and fade
