It's star time at, you know, well,
well actually it is.
It's star time at the shelter.
_ [A] _ _ [D] And the star [C] that is shining has shown for many, many years.
And that person is far beyond just a rescue me
or a soul of the [Gb] man because this artist [E] is complete _
in the repertoire, _ _ in the artistry, _
_ and most of all, her love of music and her love for you.
_ _ And the star is surrounded by other [Bbm] stars.
She's a superstar with other [Bb] superstars.
_ The lady who I have the privilege
of introducing, _ _ Fontella Bass.

My soul looks back and wonder.
My soul looks back and wonder.
My soul looks back and wonder [Cm] how I got over.

[Ab] _ _ [G] _ And my soul, [F] _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] oh, I [Cm] made it on over.
[Bb] _ Just as soon as I could see Jesus,
the one that made me free.
_ [Eb] One that bled and suffered.
You know he died for you [Bb] and I.
_ Cause he brought me.
Thank him because he taught me.
[Eb] Thank him because he kept me.
Thank him cause he [Bb] never left me.

[Bb] I'm gonna wear a diamond ring
in the new Jerusalem
[Eb] I'm gonna walk streets of gold
in the homeland [Bb] of the soul _ _ _
Who travel both day and night
[Eb] from every nation
They're on the way
to the [Bb] great coordination
Coming from the north
They'll be coming from the south
[Eb] Coming from the east
They'll be coming from the [Bb] west

[Eb] _ _ _ [Gm] And the sun [Cm] is black and wonder
How I got over
