Bethlehem Chris de Burgh
Intro: Am
[Am] I saw[G] three kings r[F]iding through the desert as the day begins
[Am] We bring[G] great joy[F] to the birth of a b[G]aby boy
[C] By the star we h[G]ave been led[Dm] to this place that s[Am]omeone said
The p[F]eople that you're looking for have n[Em]ever been here at [Am]all
[Am] I saw[G] two birds [F]one was a hawk, the other was a dove
[Am] One said "[G]I am war", the [F]other one said, "[G]I am love"
[C] As they flew up t[G]o the sky they g[Dm]ot to close to the s[Am]un
And with a fl[F]ash of light, the d[Em]ove fell to the gr[Am]ound
[Am] Somet[G]imes we never kn[F]ow
[G] [Am] When its t[G]ime for letting g[F]o
[G] [Am] Last n[G]ight I heard them s[F]ay
N[C]ooo[G]o, we will n[D]ever let that happen again
But its a l[F]ong long way from h[G]ere to Bethleh[Am]em
Yes its a l[F]ong long way from h[G]ere to Bethleh[Am]em
[Am] I saw[G] St. Paul t[F]alking to the devil like the best of friends
[Am] They said "lets m[G]ake a deal and br[F]ing this curse and w[G]ar to an end"
[C] As they stood there sh[G]aking hands the d[Dm]evil signed his name to the pl[Am]an
After a c[F]ouple days there was n[Em]othing there at [Am]all
[Am] Somet[G]imes we never kn[F]ow
[G] [Am] When its t[G]ime for letting g[F]o
[G] [Am] Last n[G]ight I heard them s[F]ay
N[C]ooo[G]o, we will n[D]ever let that happen again
But its a l[F]ong long way from h[G]ere to Bethleh[Am]em
M[A]uch has ch[D]anged in the m[E]odern w[A]orld
Th[A]ere's no t[D]ime for the l[E]ong ag[A]o
M[A]any pr[D]oblems th[E]at we h[F#m]ave
Are from the gr[F]eatest story [G]ever t[A]old
And its a l[Am]ong long way to Bethlehem
Its a l[Am]ong long way to Bethlehem
Its a l[Am]ong long way to Bethlehem
Its a l[Am]ong long way
