Verse 1:
D D/Db A Em7 G
You said when you die that you’d walk with me every day.
D D/Db A Em7 G
Then I start to cry and say please don’t talk that way.
D D/Db A Em7 G
With a blink of an eye the lord came and asked you to leave.
D D/Db A Em7 G
You went to a better place but it stole you away from me.
D D/Db A Em7 G
And now she lives in heaven
D D/Db A Em7.
But I know they let her out.
To take care of me
Chorus:
G D G D
There’s a strange kind of light, caressing me tonight.
G D C C/G A
Pray silence my fear; she is near, bringing heaven down here.
Intro
Verse 2:
I miss your love, I miss your touch, but I’m feeling you every day.
And I can almost hear you say ‘You’ve come a long way baby’.
And now you live in heaven.
But I know they let you out.
To take care of me
Chorus:
There’s a strange kind of light, in my bedroom tonight.
Pray silence my fear; she is near, bringing heaven down here.
Middle 8:
Bm A Em F#m – F#
You taught me kings and queens, whilst stroking my head.
Bm A Em F#m – F#
And in my darkest dark, I know you are there.
Bm A Em F#m – F#
Leaning down besides me, whispering my prayers.
Chorus:
There’s a strange kind of light, caressing me tonight.
Pray silence my fear; she is near, bringing heaven down here.
G D G D
The next time that we meet, I will bow at her feet.
G D C – C/G A
You’ll say ‘Wasn’t life sweet when we were there, to take heaven down there!’
