THE ANGELS CRIED

by Alan Jackson with Alison Krauss

written by Harley Allen and Deborah Nims

charted by Bo Frazer

NOTES: capo fret 3

----------------------------------------------------------

Intro = D C G A D C G A

Verse 1:

D A

They came from near, they came from far,

Bm A G

Following a distant star to where He lay,

D A

Not being sure of what it meant, but

Bm A

Knowing it was heaven sent,

G

They made their way,

Chorus:

Em

And the creatures gathered 'round

G

And didn't make a sound,

D C G

And the angels cried.

Verse 2:

The angels knew what was to come,

The reason God had sent His son

From up above.

It filled their hearts with joy to see, and

Knowing of His destiny,

Came tears of love.

Verse 3:

I've often thought about that night

And wondered if they realized

That star so bright

Was sent to tell all the land

The Son of God would soon become

The Son of Man.
