[Verse]

                         E
Out saw me crying in the chapel,
                               B
The tears I shed were tears of joy !
           G#m           C#      C#m
I know the meaning of contentment,
         F#             B     E B
Now I am happy with the Lord !


[Verse 2]

                        E
Just a plain and simple chapel;
                          B
Where humble people go to pray !
           G#m                 C#       C#m
I pray the Lord that I'll grow stronger,
     F#               B   E B
As I live from day to day !


[Bridge]

     E                 Em
I've searched and I've searched,
    B          G#m     C#
But I couldn't find no way,
                          F#
On earth to gain peace of mind !


[Verse 3]

                        E
Now I'm happy in the chapel,
                          B
Where people are of one accord !
   G#m           C#     C#m
We gather in the chapel,
        F#                  B    E B
Just to sing and praise the Lord !


[Bridge 2]

     E                   Em
You'll search and you'll search,
    B            G#m     C#
But you'll never find no way !
                          F#
On earth to gain peace of mind !


[Verse 4]

                          E
Take your troubles to the chapel,
                           B
Get down on your knees and pray !
     G#m             C#      C#m
Your burdens will be lighter,
           F#              B
And you'll surely find the way
