     D                              A
You said when you'd die that you'd walk
              Em
with me every day
    D                          A                     Em
And I'd start to cry and say please don't talk that way
           D                  A
With the blink of an eye the Lord came
           Em
and asked you to leave
     D                              A
You went to a better place but He stole you
       Em
away from me

     D       A7       Em
And now she lives in heaven
        D        A      Em
But I know they let her out
                 G
To take care of me

Chorus:
                           D
There's a strange kind of light
G               D
Caressing me tonight
G                D           C
Pray silence my fear she is near
                     Asus4 A Asus2 A
Bringing heaven down here

I miss your love I miss your touch
But I'm feeling you every day
And I can almost hear you say
"You've come a long way baby"

And now you live in heaven
But I know they let you out
To take care of me

Chorus

Bm
You taught me kings and queens
        G             F#
While stroking my hair
Bm                      G           F#sus4 F#7
 In my darkest hour I know you are there
Bm
Kneeling down beside me
  G            F#sus4 F#7
Whispering my prayer

Chorus

Bringing heaven down here
The next time that we meet
I will bow at her feet
And say wasn't life sweet
Then we'll prepare
To take heaven down there
