LadyDpiano: Go Tell It On The Mountain

I may be a bit early and perhaps it's not politically correct to talk about one of my favorite Christmas holiday songs before Thanksgiving... but soon this Grandma will be busily gathering food and presents for her adorable Grandsons. So, why not start practicing those bass lines for up tempo shouting music now or a slow Gospel feel of Go Tell It On The Mountain.

I wanted to share one of my favorite artists with you. This lovely lady has the voice and feel for this special song. I am also truly blessed to look out my window every day and see this incredible view... enjoy!

* Go Tell It on the Mountain by CRYSTAL LEWIS

* (Chorus)
F BbM7/F F Dm
Go tell it on the mountain
Gm Bb/C C7 F BbM7/F F
Over the hills and everywhere
BbM7/F F Dm
Go tell it on the mountain
Dm7 G9 Gm7/C C F
That Jesus Christ is born

(Verse 1)
F C/E Dm7
Down in a lowly manger

The humble Christ was born
Bb/F F C/E Dm7
And brought us God's salvation
G F/G G Fsus C7
That blessed Christmas morn
