Intro:  F   G(as many times as you like)
Many years aFgo
I happened on a Gplace
The shadows hanging Flow
I could make out his Gface
In an ancient Fmist
They gazed into the Gflame
Around a dying Fone
They chanted out a Gname
 F   Gx2
They looked up to the Fsky
Reciting ancient Grites
The trees began to Fsway
Bathed in fluorescent Glight
The embers in their Feyes
Fixed on the living Gdead
Motionless he Frests
His skin was glowing Gred
And as suFre as we sGtand
When we Fcall
With our four Ghands
For the onFe from abGove
Who will Fheal us
With a Gtouch   
 F   G(as many times as needed)
And as suFre as we sGtand
When we Fcall
With our four Ghands
For the onFe from abGove
Who will Fheal us
With a Gtouch   x3

F G

Intro: (as many times as you like)

Many years ago

I happened on a place

The shadows hanging low

I could make out his face

In an ancient mist

They gazed into the flame

Around a dying one

They chanted out a name

F G

They looked up to the sky

Reciting ancient rites

The trees began to sway

Bathed in fluorescent light

The embers in their eyes

Fixed on the living dead

Motionless he rests

His skin was glowing red

F G

And as sure as we stand

When we call

With our four hands

F G

For the one from above

Who will heal us

With a touch

F G

(as many times as needed)

F G

And as sure as we stand

When we call

With our four hands

F G

For the one from above

Who will heal us

With a touch x3
