Bethlehem Town chords by Jars Of Clay

Verse:
              Am/E
Oh, Mary, Joseph, rest your eyes
            Em11
Try not to think of the ending
               Am/E
World full of empty, He will die
         D/F#     Em11
But tonight He is still just a child

               Am/E
The silent night drifts all away
              Em9
And the angels are dancing around you
                   G5
There's the joy of knowing He'll save the world
  C5add9    G5/B      Am
Overshadowing the pain that He'll go through

Chorus:
     C5add9
  Have you cursed at the wind
     G5/B
  Have you cried to the heavens
     Am7       D/F#   G5
  Have you fought with this mercy you don't understand
     C5add9
  When the wise men kneel down
   G5/B              Amadd9/E E Am
  To kiss the hand of this king they found
   Ebdim7  Em9
  In Bethlehem town


Verse:
              Am/E
Will you hold back the years a while
                   Em9
Will you dream that this man could always be a child
            G5
And never carry all the weight
    C5add9    G5/B      Am
Of the dirt and the distance and the company we keep


Pre-Chorus:
C F#m7 B7

Bridge:
        C        A7/C#     D
   And did the stars shine much brighter that night
       C      A7/C#      D      Ebdim7
   You gave birth to the death that would bring us to life
        Em9        G7
   And did the mystery keep you awake
      C      G/B     A
   Was the sound of His little heart too much to take

  To kiss the hand of this king they found

  Have you fought with this mercy you don't understand
     C5add9
  When the wise men kneel down
   G5/B              Amadd9/E E Am
  To kiss the hand of this king they found
