The Three Bells Hit #1 on Billboard in 1959 as recorded by The Browns (Jim Ed Maxine and Bonnie) on RCA Records Original French Words by Bert Reisfeld and music by Jean Villard English words by Dick Manning. This is my version of this beautiful song. In the key of D 4/4 rhythm moderately slow
The Three Bells [Strum a D chord on guitar]
There's a [D] village hidden [G] deep in the [D] valley [[Strum chord [G] Among the [D] pine trees [G] half [D] forlorn one time each And [D] there on a sunny [F#mi] morning as noted on Little [G] Jimmy [A7th] Brown was [D] born these four lines]] Voices only (bung, bung, bung, bung) [G] All the chapel bells were ringing in the little village [D7th] town And the songs that they were singing was for baby Jimmy [G] Brown Then the little congregation [B7th] prayed for guidance from [C] above [G] "Lead us not into temptation, [D7th] bless this hour of meditation" Guide him with Eternal [G] Love
[strum a D chord on guitar]
There's a [D] village hidden [G] deep in the [D] valley [[same [G] Beneath the [D] mountains [G] high [D] above as And there, twenty years [F#mi] thereafter verse]] Jimmy [G] was to [A7th] meet his [D] love
[Voices only] (Bung, bung, bung, bung) [G] All the chapel bells were ringing, 'Twas a great day in his [D7th] life Cause the songs that they were singing was for Jimmy and his [G] wife Then the little congregation [B7th] prayed for guidance from [C] above [G] "Lead us not into temptation, [D7th] bless, oh Lord this celebration"
