The Precious Jewel
Roy Acuff
G
(início)
G C G Way back in the hills, when a boy, I once wandered A D Buried deep in her grave lies the one that I love G C G She was called from this earth, a jewel for heaven D G More precious than diamonds more precious than gold.
Chorus
G C G A jewel here on earth, a jewel in heaven A D She'll brighten the kingdom around God's great throne G C G May the angels have peace, God bless her in heaven D G They've broken my heart and they left me to roam.
Verse 2
G C G When a girl of sixteen, we courted each other A D She promised someday to be-come my sweet wife G C G I bought her the ring to wear on her finger D G But the angels they called her to heaven one night.
Chorus
G C G A jewel here on earth, a jewel up in heaven A D She'll brighten the kingdom around God's great throne G C G May the angels have peace, God bless her in heaven D G They've broken my heart and they left me to roam.
Verse 3
G C G This world has it wealth, its' trials and troubles A D Mother earth holds her treasures of diamonds and gold G C G But it can't hold the soul of one precious jewel D G She's resting in peace with the heavenly fold.
End chorus
G C G May the angels have peace, God bless her in heaven D G They've broken my heart and they left me to roam.
