[Verse]
Am/E Oh, Mary, Joseph, rest your eyes Em11 Try not to think of the ending Am/E World full of empty, He will die D/F# Em11 But tonight He is still just a child Am/E The silent night drifts all away Em9 And the angels are dancing around you G5 There's the joy of knowing He'll save the world C5add9 G5/B Am Overshadowing the pain that He'll go through
[Chorus]
C5add9 Have you cursed at the wind G5/B Have you cried to the heavens Am7 D/F# G5 Have you fought with this mercy you don't understand C5add9 When the wise men kneel down G5/B Amadd9/E E Am To kiss the hand of this king they found Ebdim7 Em9 In Bethlehem town
[Verse]
Am/E Will you hold back the years a while Em9 Will you dream that this man could always be a child G5 And never carry all the weight C5add9 G5/B Am Of the dirt and the distance and the company we keep
[Pre-Chorus]
C F#m7 B7
[Chorus]
C5add9 Have you cursed at the wind G5/B Have you cried to the heavens Am7 D/F# G5 Have you fought with this mercy you don't understand C5add9 When the wise men kneel down G5/B Amadd9/E E Am To kiss the hand of this king they found Ebdim7 Em9 In Bethlehem town

C A7/C# D And did the stars shine much brighter that night C A7/C# D Ebdim7 You gave birth to the death that would bring us to life Em9 G7 And did the mystery keep you awake C G/B A Was the sound of His little heart too much to take C5add9 When the wise men kneel down G5/B Amadd9/E E Am Ebdim7 To kiss the hand of this king they found
[Chorus]
C5add9 Have you cursed at the wind G5/B Have you cried to the heavens Am7 D/F# G5 Have you fought with this mercy you don't understand C5add9 When the wise men kneel down G5/B Amadd9/E E Am To kiss the hand of this king they found Ebdim7 Em9 In Bethlehem town
