Subject: Lyr/Chords Add: YOU'LL FIND HER NAME WRITTEN THERE
Bill Monroe is probably most closely associated with this great Harold Hensley tune although it's been recorded by many people including John Fahey, Mike Seeger, and The Jerry Garcia (Old And In The Way).

The word find at the end of each verse is traditionally sung as fa-hind.

YOU'LL FIND HER NAME WRITTEN THERE

No more, no more she'll walk the earth,    (D, C, D)
Her face like a beautiful flower,    (D, C, A7)
But all alone on a marble stone,    (D, C, D, G)
You'll find her name written there.    (D, A7, D)

Her new voice rings where the angles sing,
Her voice so pure and so fair,
But if you look in the Heavenly Book,
You'll find her name written there.

I'm all alone since the call of fate,
Left me in the deepest despair,
But if you wait at the Pearly Gate,
You'll find her name written there.

I breathe her name into the air,
It goes I know not where,
But if you look in the heart of a friend,
You'll find her name written there.

You'll find her name written there.
