[Intro] C G7 C F Dm7 C F Gsus G [Verse 1]
              C       G    C
Just another homeless family

          G7      C     Dm7 G  C
Hoping for a stranger's charity

C            C       F         G        Em7
Just one night in one safe place to stay

Am               Dm7    G    C
Underneath a star so far away
[Verse 2]
    F                 C        G        C
She carried everything they had and more

             G7         C       Dm  G   C
The little One the world was waiting for

    Em7                  F          G       Em7
And somewhere in the night her child was born

Am             Dm7       G        F    C
Into every heart so tired and torn
[Chorus]
     C       F
And the light shining from that star

      C          G       C
Will show you who you are

     C       F
And His light shining with its might

      C                                 G
Will lead you through your darkest night
[Verse 3]
     F                   C       G         C
They couldn't find a room for Him back then

           Dm7      C        Dm7   G     C
But he found a place in the hearts of men

    Em7                    F          G       Em7
The hope that all the world would come to know

Am7                  Dm7      G    C
Born beneath that star so long ago
[Instrumental] F C G C C G C C F G Em7 Am Dm7 G7 F C [Chorus]
     C       F
And the light shining from that star

      C          G       C
Will show you who you are

     C       F
And His light shining with its might

      C                                 G
Will lead you through your darkest night
[Verse 4]
              C       G    C
Just another homeless family

          G7      C     Dm7 G  C
Hoping for a stranger's charity

C            C       F         G        Em7
Just one night in one safe place to stay

Am               Dm7    G    C
Underneath a star so far away
[Outro] C G7 C F Dm7 C F Gsus G C
