Вступление
[Intro]
F G Am G
Am C F
[Verse 1]
F C Am G
Come, come with me to the old churchyard,
C C/E F
I so well know that path 'neath the soft green sward.
F C Am G
Friends in there that we once did regard;
C C/E F F
We can trace out their names in the old churchyard.
[Refrain]
C C
Mourn not for them for their trials are o'er,
Am F C G
And why weep for those who will weep no more?
F C Am G
For sweet is their sleep, though cold and hard
C C/E F
Their pillows they be in the old churchyard.
[Interlude]
F G Am G
[Verse 2]
F C Am G
I know that it's vain when our friends depart
C C/E F
To breathe kind words to a broken heart;
F C Am G
And I know that the joy of life is marred
C C/E F F
When we follow all our friends to the old churchyard.
[Refrain]
C C/E C/A
But were I at rest 'neath yonder tree,
Am F C G
Why would you weep, my friends, for me?
F C Am G
I'm so weary, and worn, why would you retard
C C/E F
The peace I seek in the old churchyard?
[Interlude]
F G Am G
[Verse 3]
F C Am G
Why weep for me, for I'm ready to go
C C/E F
To that haven of rest where no tears ever flow;
F C Am G
And I fear not to enter that dark lonely tomb
C C/E F F
Where our saviour has lain and conquered the gloom.
[Refrain]
C C C/E
I rest in the hope that one bright day
Am F C G
Sunshine will burst through this prison of clay,
F C Am G
And Gabriel's trumpet and the voice of the Lord
C C/E F
Will wake up the dead in the old churchyard.
[Outro]
F G Am G
Am C F
