LIGHTS OF MAGDALA

Intro:
G

Verse:
       G
Oh the lights of Magdala flicker dimly on the shore
D                          G
Holy sailor sailing on the sea
G
Patiently waiting, she walked quietly to the door
D                           G
Another lonely night in Galilee

Chorus:
Am               C                   G
Magdalene, don't wrap your dreams in sorrow
Am            C              G
Save them for tomorrow if it comes
           Am              C                 G
When we'll meet within the circle around the sun
      D             C                                       G
Oh if Heaven were a lady don't you know you'd have been the one
Solo:
G  C  G  C  G

Verse:
   G
To the streets of Jerusalem you followed him once more
D                               G
Holy sailor, come home from the sea
G
Someone some where?s callin' him to a golden distant shore
D                             G
Far from the lonely nights in Galilee

Chorus:
Am               C                   G
Magdalene, don't wrap your dreams in sorrow
Am            C              G
Save them for tomorrow if it comes
           Am              C                 G
When we'll meet within the circle around the sun
      D             C                                       G
Oh if Heaven were a lady don't you know you'd have been the one
