D/A  Dmaj7/A             D6/A   G/A                 [ D/A ]
       My poor heart was heavy,   my poor heart was stone

D/A    Dmaj7/A                D6/A     G/A             [ D/A ]
Then I heard them - they were angels,    and they were singing:

D/A  Dmaj7/A         D6/A   G/A
        'You're not alone',  

            D/A   Dmaj7/A        D6/A   G/E          [ D/A ]
'There is a peace   you've never known'

D/A  Dmaj7/A        D6/A     G/A                [ D/A ]
       I could hear trumpets,  I could hear them blow

D/A      Dmaj7/A         D6/A     G/A         [ D/A ]
Then the angels summoned chariots,  the angels told them

D/A  Dmaj7/A          D6/A   G/A
        'Swing, swing low'

           D/A       Dmaj7/A          D6/A   G/E      
The angels told them   'swing, swing low'
