[Verse 1]
Am When I heard you sing F It felt like a christening Dm7 C/E F A baptism at the back of the bar Em F I fell under your spell Dm7 F You sang my life so well
[Verse 2]
Am F As your voice quivers with each line you deliver Dm7 C/E F I hear the orchestra as I stand in awe Em F I felt so close to the Lord Dm7 F I’ve tried my whole life to ignore
[Chorus]
Dm7 F But, Love, I’m alive C/E And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green G/D Could lead us back to Bethlehem Dm7 F Lord, I have tried C/E And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green G/D Dm7 Could lead us back to Bethlehem
[Interlude]
F C/E G/D
[Verse 3]
Am When I heard you sing F It was a balm for the blistering Dm7 C/E F My eyes, all swollen and scarred Em F Your hands guide mine over the braille Dm7 F I felt each word without fail
[Chorus]
Dm7 F But, Love, I’m alive C/E And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green G/D Could lead us back to Bethlehem Dm7 F Lord, I have tried C/E And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green G/D Could lead us back to Bethlehem F Dm7 Love, I'm alive C/E And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green G/D Could lead us back to Bethlehem F Dm7 Lord, I have tried C/E And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green G/D Could lead us back to Bethlehem
