Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
C/G  Major (332010) (but you can also play a regular C Chord) wich is (X32010)
Many  years ago when a lad  at mother's knee
I  heard her call my name in prayer
Praying  for the Lord to save me  for eternity
I  heard her call my name  in prayer
Yes  mother called my name in prayer
 I heard her call my name in prayer
As  she bowed upon her knees before  her old bedside
 I heard her call my name  in prayer
 Little Instrumental Break:
high e string: 3-5-6-7-7-3-5-6-7-7-3-8-8-3-8-7-3-5-6-7-7-8-7-8-7-6-5-3--0--3
 Then on the b string 4-3
As  the years rolled on for me she never  failed to pray
 I know she’ll call my name in prayer
Praying  that I’ll always lead the straight  and narrow way
 I know she’ll call my name  in prayer
Yes  Mother called my name in prayer
I  heard her call my name in prayer
As  she bowed upon her knees before  her old bedside
I  heard her call my name  in prayer
 HINT: It sounds much cooler ich you use this strumming:
 Plug the Bass string and then do a strum on the chord (Country Style)
 But: You can change the Bass in the Chord back and forth
 If you play the G Chord you can plug the D and the A string as Bass.
 If you play the D7 Chord you can plug the D and A string as Bass.
 If you play the C Chord, you can plug the A and E string as Bass.
 Alright! That's it! Hope you have fun with that :-)
