(início)

Verse 1:
      G                                       C/G
        There's an old familiar hillside overlooking Emhouse,Texas
                 G                                   D
        Where i left some childhood memories layin' round
              G                              C/G
        I can almost hear the singing,i can still remember praying
                G                                D              G
        At them old campground meetings eatin' chicken on the ground
      G            D                        G
        With them hallelujahs ringin',everybody shoutin',singin'
                                                               D
        Give me that old time religion,Jesus loves me,this i know
              G                               C/G
        When life was finger-lickin' good and God lived in our neighborhood
                G                                D              C/G
        At them old campground meetin's eatin' chicken on the ground
Verse 2:
      G                                       C/G
        I can still remember feelin' all that happiness inside me
                 G                                   D
        When i praised the Lord and laid my burdens down
                   G                              C/G
        But that chicken must have tasted better than the word of God
                         G                              D               G
        'Cause it went slippin' through my fingers and rollin' on the ground
Chorus.
Verse 3:
      G                             C/G
        I reckon everyone of us can call back or remember
                  G                                 D
        When the taste and smell of youth was all around
               G                         C/G
        And i reckon in our own way everyone of us is payin' now
             G                                   D            G
        For eatin' chicken  and not listenin' to old Parson Brown
Chorus (x3).
