3 4 -4 5 5
There are so many
-5 -4 -3 -4 4 3
Memories of my childhood
-3” 4 -3 3 -3”
But there’s one that I
-3 4 -4 5 4
Treasure more than all
4 -4 5 -5
It was the time
-3” -3” 4 -5 5 4
At the old camp meeting
5 5 -5 5 -4
That wonderful day
-3 4 -4 5 4
I heard Jesus call
Chorus:
4 4 -4 5 -5
Down the sawdust trail
-3” -3” 4 -5 -5 5
At the old camp meeting
5 5 5 5 4
Where the sinner’s cry
5 5 5 -4
Rang with travail
5 5 6 5 4
How the fire did fall
5 5 5 -4 4 -3”
When their prayer reached heaven
-3” -3” 4 -5 5 3
At the old camp meeting
5 -5 5 -4 4
Down the sawdust trail
Verse 2:
I saw my dear old
Brokenhearted mother
On her knees with her
Head bowed low in prayer
It was for me
That she was praying
Praying that I
Would find Jesus there
(Chorus)
