       My poor heart was heavy,   my poor heart was stone
D/A    [ch]Dmaj7/A[/ch]                [ch]D6/A[/ch]     G/A             [D/A]
Then I heard them - they were angels,    and they were singing:
D/A  [ch]Dmaj7/A[/ch]         [ch]D6/A[/ch]   G/A
        'You're not alone',  
            D/A   [ch]Dmaj7/A[/ch]        [ch]D6/A[/ch]   G/E          [D/A]
'There is a peace   you've never known'

D/A  [ch]Dmaj7/A[/ch]        [ch]D6/A[/ch]     G/A                [D/A]
       I could hear trumpets,  I could hear them blow
D/A      [ch]Dmaj7/A[/ch]         [ch]D6/A[/ch]     G/A         [D/A]
Then the angels summoned chariots,  the angels told them
D/A  [ch]Dmaj7/A[/ch]          [ch]D6/A[/ch]   G/A
        'Swing, swing low'
           D/A       [ch]Dmaj7/A[/ch]          [ch]D6/A[/ch]   G/E      
The angels told them   'swing, swing low'
