When God Comes And Gathers His Jewels Teclado

	  D    G 
INTRO 
 
        G7       C       
The ceremony was over, 
  D                  G 
A lad stood alone in tears. 
           G7   C 
For he had just said goodbye, 
       D                            G 
To the one he had loved through the years. 
 
 
              G7            C 
He stood all alone with his head bowed down, 
   D                      G 
As though his heart would break. 
                     G7       C 
Then the Parson came over and took his hand, 
    D                         G 
And to him these words he did say: 
 
 
                   G7          C 
When God comes and gathers his jewels, 
        D                         G 
All his treasures of diamonds and gold. 
                   G7          C 
You'll meet her up there up in heaven so fair, 
     D                         G 
When God comes and gathers his jewels.

INSTRUMENTAL 
 
 
                    G7           C 
Each night when the pale moon is shining, 
        D                 G 
You can see this lad all alone. 
              G7            C 
With his eyes lifted toward heaven, 
       D                          G 
He's repeating these words he was told. 
 
 
                   G7          C 
When God comes and gathers his jewels, 
        D                         G 
All his treasures of diamonds and gold. 
                 G7       C 
I'll meet you up there up in heaven so fair, 
     D                         G 
When God comes and gathers his jewels.

All his treasures of diamonds and gold.

I'll meet you up there up in heaven so fair,

When God comes and gathers his jewels.
