C G F F G C
There was a child Named Bernadette, I heard the story long ago
C G F G C
She saw the queen of heaven once and kept the vision in her soul
C7 F D G
No one believed what she had seen, no one believed what she had heard
C G F Dm7 G C
That there were sorrows to be healed and mercy, mercy in this world.
F Am
So many hearts I find, Broke like yours and mine
F Dm7 G7
Torn by what we've done and can't undo.
C G F Am
I just want to hold you, come on let me hold you
F G C
Like Bernadette would do.
C G F F G C
We've been around we fall, we fly. We mostly fall we mostly run.
C G F F G C
And every now and then we try, to mend the damage that we've done.
C7 F D G
Tonight, tonight I cannot rest. I've got this joy here inside my breast.
C G F Dm7 G C
To think that I did not forget, that child, that song of Bernadette.
Repeat chorus
C G F Am F G C
I just want to hold you, come on let me hold you, like Bernadette would do.
