[Intro]
[Am G F E](X2)

        Am                 Dm     
He came riding fast like a phoenix
               E
 out of fire flames
        Am                    
He came dressed in black with a 
Dm                    E
cross bearing my name
        Am                  Dm    
He came bathed in light and 
          E
splendor and glory
        Am                        
I can't believe what the lord has 
Dm             E
finally sent me

[Am Dm E](X2)

        Am               Dm   
He said dance for me, fanciulla 
        E
gentil
        Am                   Dm   
He said laugh a while, I can make 
              E
your heart feel
Continues after the ad
        Am                     Dm 
He said fly with me, touch the 
                E
face of the true god
         Am                  Dm   
And then cry with joy at the depth
         E
 of my love
Am                      Dm
Cause I've prayed days, I've prayed 
nights
E
For the lord just to send me home 
some sign
Am                Dm
I've looked long, I've looked far
E                                 
To bring peace to my black and 
    Am
empty heart
Dm  E   E   Am  Dm  E   E
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah, Aaaaah

[Am Dm E](X4)

    Am                     Dm     
My love will stay till the river 
         E
bed run dry
       Am                    
And my love lasts long as the 
 Dm             E
sunshine blue sky
   Am                Dm           
I love him longer as each damn day
   E
 goes
    Am              Dm        
The man is gone and heaven only 
   E
knows
Am                     G
Cause I've cried days, I've cried 
nights
F              E
For the lord just to send me up some
 sign
Am          G
Is he near? Is he far?
F               E
Bring peace to my black and empty 
heart
Am           G
So long day, so long night
F            E
Oh lord, be near me tonight
Am          G
Is he near? Is he far?
F                 E
Bring peace to my black and empty 
heart
Am G F E
Aaaaah
Am G F E
