Church House Steps

Em

[Verse]

      Em
i sat down upon the church house steps
      Em
i sat down upon the church house steps
      Am
i sat down upon the church house
Am                         Em
down upon the church house steps
     Bm
with all my hopes and dreams
     Am        Em
with all of my regrets

      Em
i sat down upon the church house steps
      Em
i sat down upon the church house steps
      Am
i sat down upon the church house
Am                         Em
down upon the church house steps
     Bm
with all i have lost
     Am              Em
with all i have been blessed

      Em
i sat down upon the church house steps
      Em
i sat down upon the church house steps
      Am
i sat down upon the church house
Am                         Em
down upon the church house steps

  Bm
i reached to the sky
     Am               Em
as i hung my head and wept


(Play these chords while Ben and the Blind Boys sing the verses below.
As there is much singing improvisation it's hard to match the chords to the lyrics.
But I think it's roughly repeating the chords below  until the end.)
