[D]INTRO[G]

The cere[G7]mony was [C]over,
A [D]lad stood alone in [G]tears.
For he had [G7]just [C]said goodbye,
To the [D]one he had loved through the [G]years.

He stood all a[G7]lone with his [C]head bowed down,
As [D]though his heart would [G]break.
Then the Parson came [G7]over and [C]took his hand,
And [D]to him these words he did [G]say:

When God comes and [G7]gathers his [C]jewels,
All his [D]treasures of diamonds and [G]gold.
You'll meet her up [G7]there up in [C]heaven so fair,
When [D]God comes and gathers his [G]jewels.

[G]INST[C]RUME[D]NTAL[G][G7][C][D][G]

Each night when the [G7]pale moon is [C]shining,
You can [D]see this lad all a[G]lone.
With his eyes [G7]lifted toward [C]heaven,
He's re[D]peating these words he was [G]told.

When God comes and [G7]gathers his [C]jewels,
All his [D]treasures of diamonds and [G]gold.
I'll meet you up [G7]there up [C]in heaven so fair,
When [D]God comes and gathers his [G]jewels.

[G]INST[C]RUME[D]NTAL[G][G7][C][D][G]

When God comes and [G7]gathers his [C]jewels,
All his [D]treasures of diamonds and [G]gold.
I'll meet you up [G7]there up [C]in heaven so fair,
When [D]God comes and gathers his [G]jewels.[D][G]
