[Eb]
[Bb] There was a child named [Eb]
Bernadette
[F] I heard the story long [Bb] ago
She
[F] saw the Queen [Eb] of Heaven once
[F]
And kept a vision in [Gm] her [A] soul
[Bb]
No [Cm] one [D] believed [Eb] what she had seen
[Gm] [C]
No one believed what [Eb] she heard
[Bb]
That [Dm] there were sorrows [Eb]
to be healed
[Gm] [Eb] And mercy, [F] mercy in this [Bb] world
[Cm] [Bb] So [Eb] many hearts
[Bb] ache, you're
[Eb] torn
By [Fm] what we've done and [Cm] can't undo
[F]
[Bb] I just want to [F]
hold you
[Eb] Come [Gm] on, let me hold [Cm] you
[Eb] Like [Bb] Bernadette would do
[G]
[Eb]
[Bb] We run [F] around, [Eb] we fall, we fly
We [F] mostly fly, we [Bb] mostly run
And every now [Eb] and then we try
[F]
To mend the damage [Gm] that we've done
[Bb]
[Cm] Tonight, [Bb] tonight I [Eb] just can't rest
[Bb]
I've got [C] that joy [Eb] down here in my [Bb] breast
To [Dm] think that I [Bb] did not forget
[Eb] [F] That child, that child [Bb] called Bernadette
So [Fm] many [Eb] hearts I find
[Bb] Hearts ache, yours and mine
[Gm] Torn by what [Fm] we've done and can't [Cm] undo
[C]
[Bb] I just [F] want to hold [Fm] you
[Eb] Come on, [Gm]
let me [Cm] hold you
[Eb]
