    You saw me crying in the chapel.
                                   B
    The tears I shed were tears of joy
                             C#
    I know the meaning of contentment
  Em         F#             B       E       B
    Now I am happy with the Lord

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

         E                 Em
    I've searched and I've searched
        B          G#m
    But I couldn't find
       C#
    No way on earth
                     F#    (tacet)
    To gain peace of mind

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

           E                 Em
    You'll search and you'll search
        B            G#m
    But you'll never find
       C#
    No way on earth
                     F#    (tacet)
    To gain peace of mind

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