Spoken:
There`s a village
Hidden deep in the valley
Among the pine trees half forlorn
And there on a sunny morning
Little Jimmy Brown was born
G
All the chapel bells were ringing
D
In the little valley town
D7
And the songs that they were singing
G
Was for baby Jimmy Brown
G
Then the little congregation
B Em
Prayed for guidance from above
C G
Lead us not into temptation
D
Bless this hour of meditation
G
Guide him with eternal love
Spoken:
There`s a village
Hidden deep in the valley
Beneath the mountains high above
And there, twenty years thereafter
Jimmy was to meet his love
G
All the chapel bells were ringing
D
Twas the great day of his life
D7
Cause the song that they were singing
G
Was for Jimmy and his wife
G
Then the little congregation
B Em
Prayed for guidance from above
C G
Lead us not into temptation
D
Bless, oh, Lord, this celebration
G
May their lives be filled with love
Spoken:
From the village
Hidden deep in the valley
One rainy morning dark and gray
A soul winged it`s way to heaven
Jimmy Brown had passed away
G
Just a lonely bell was ringing
D
In the little valley town
D7
Twas farewell that they was singing
G G#
To our good old Jimmy Brown
G#
And the little congregation
C Fm
Prayed for guidance from above
C# G#
Lead us not into temptation
D#
May his soul find true salvation
G#
In the great eternal love
