------------------------------ Author's Notes ----------------------------------
I've looked through all the chord charts on here and I think that they're all 
still off.  If you listen to the melodies that Lauren Hill and the background 
singers do, there's many more 7ths implied that aren't in the other versions posted

    Em7                                 E:  022100

Am7              D7(5th)                     
    And there he was a young boy        C5: x3555x
G5            B7                        B7: x21202<-note fingering)
   a stranger to my eyes.

    (CHORUS)

I felt all flushed with fever 
embarrassed by the crowd.
I felt he found my letters 
and read each one out loud.
I prayed that he would finish
but he just kept right on.
