[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][C][G]
[D][G]
[D][G]

[Verse 1]
Way [G]back in the hills,
when [C]a boy, I once [G]wandered
Buried deep in her grave
lies [A]the one that I [D]love
She was called from [G]this
earth, a [C]jewel for [G]Heaven
More precious than diamonds,
more [D]precious than [G]gold

[Verse 2]
[G]
A jewel here on earth,
a [C]jewel in [G]Heaven[D][G][D][G]
She'll brighten the kingdom
[A]around God's great [D]throne
May the angels have [G]peace,
God [C]bless her in [G]Heaven
They've broken my heart and
they [D]left me to roam
[G]

[Verse 3]
When a girl of sixteen,
we [C]courted each [G]other
She promised someday to
be[A]come my sweet [D]wife
I bought her the [G]ring to [C]wear on her [G]finger
But the angels they called her
to [D]Heaven one [G]night

[Verse 4]
A jewel here on earth, a jewel in Heaven
[G]
She'll brighten the kingdom
around God's great throne
May the angels have [C]peace,
[G]God[A] ble[D]ss her in Heaven[G]
They've [C]broken [G]my [D]heart[G]
and they left me to [D]roam[G]

[Verse 5]
This [G]world has it wealth,
its [C]trials [G]and troubles
Mother Earth holds her treasures
of [A]diamonds and [D]gold
But it can't hold the [G]soul of
[C]one [G]precious jewel
She's resting in peace with the
[D]Heavenly fold

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][G]
[A][D]

[Verse 6]
May the [D]angels have [G]peace,
God [C]bless her in [G]Heaven
They've broken my heart
and they [D]left me to roam
[G]
