[Verse]
          C                               G7
There's a church in the valley by the wildwood,
   G7                    C
No lovelier place in the dale
   F                     C
No spot is so dear to my childhood
       G7                         C
As the little brown church in the dale
 
[Chorus]
   C
Oh come, come, come, come
C                             G7
Come to the church in the wildwood
   G7                        C
Oh come to the church in the dale
   F                     C
No spot is so dear to my childhood
       G7                         C
As the little brown church in the dale

C   G7   C   F/A  C  G7  C
 
[Verse 2]
    C                           G7
How sweet on a clear Sabbath morning
   G7                          C
To listen to the clear ringing bell
    F                    C
Its tones so sweetly are calling
   G                         C
Oh come to the church in the dale
 
[Chorus]
   C
Oh come, come, come, come
C                             G7
Come to the church in the wildwood
   G7                        C
Oh come to the church in the dale
   F                     C
No spot is so dear to my childhood
       G7                         C
As the little brown church in the dale
 
[Verse 3]
      C                            G7
There close by the side of a loved one
           G7                           C
’neath the trees where the wild flowers bloom
    F                               C
She sleeps, sweetly sleeps ‘neath a willow
   G                        C
Disturb not her rest in the tomb
 
[Chorus]
   C
Oh come, come, come, come
C                             G7
Come to the church in the wildwood
   G7                        C
Oh come to the church in the dale
   F                     C
No spot is so dear to my childhood
       G7                         C
As the little brown church in the dale
 
[Chorus]
   C
Oh come, come, come, come
C                             G7
Come to the church in the wildwood
   G7                        C
Oh come to the church in the dale
   F                     C
No spot is so dear to my childhood
       G7                         C
As the little brown church in the dale

My grandfather would play this for my grandmother before he died... she was so tickled to hear me be able to play it for her. Thank you.
