C G
It reads like a fairy tale
Am F
And that's what it was
C G
Young man in his prime
Am F
Young girl from the Cross
C G
The most perfect of strangers
Am F
Then the night closed in
C G
And the holy ground
G F
Took care of everything

C G
Now she was a fine one
Am F
And he was a handsome man
C G
One look was enough
Am F
And away they ran
C G
They spent many happy hours
Am F
And then the night closed in
C G
And the holy ground
G F
Took care of everything

F G C
Oh, what's the use in complaining?
F G Am
In for a penny, in for a pound
F G Am
I remember the loving time
F G C
And nothing else really counts

Am C
And I recall the promise they made
Am C
With a faith I can but admire
Am C
That she'd be the one he adored
F C F
And he'd be her heart's desire

C G
It didn't come true in the end
Am F
They went their separate ways
C G
He couldn't change what he was
Am F
She wasn't ready to wait
C G
They couldn't live in the daylight
Am F
They let the night close in
C G
And the holy ground
G F
Took care of everything

C G
They couldn't live in the daylight
Am F
They let the night close in
C G
And the holy ground
G F
Took care of everything

F G Am
I remember the loving time
F G C
And noth

Thank you so much for carrying this song forward so beautifully. This morning I was looking for a fairly recent cover. Grateful to have found this.
