Candles chords by The Nashville Tribute Band

Intro: E     A B7     E   A

            E                     A         B7                E     A    B7
Well I've heard the people talking in the fields and in the store
            E                    C#m               A                       B7
They say a man is claiming visions and they don't want him ?round here no more
          A                   B7                         E      A
And with questions in my heart I walked home late last night
         E                       B7                    E
And in front of his old farmhouse something caught my eye

A        B7              E     A           B7               C#m
I saw a candle burning brightly up in his window late last night
A          B7               E     A    F#m                                    B7
and in my heart it gripped tightly and something said son what He's doing is right
A        B7              E
I saw a candle burning bright

        E                A          B7                   E    A    B7
Well a vigil got together and they kicked in his front door
             E                         C#m           A                B7
And as they drug him onto the back porch I wondered what all this was for
       A                        B7                          E      A
And I watched him wrench in pain as the tar burned in his flesh
          E                   B7                       E
While a preacher held a candle dripping wax upon his chest

A        B7              E     A           B7               C#m
I saw a candle burning brightly deep in his eyes late last night
A          B7               E     A    F#m                                    B7
and in my heart it gripped tightly and something said son what He's doing is right
A        B7              E
I saw a candle burning bright

          E                              A      B7                  E    A    B7
Well this morning I was walking leaves blowing down that old dirt road
           E                       C#m A            B7
And those feelings just kept stirring deep within my soul
          A                     B7                          E      A
And in my lips a silent whisper: Lord please tell me what is right
              E                       B7                   E
And then the spirit danced within me like a soft candle light


A        B7              E     A           B7               C#m
I saw a candle burning brightly up in his window late that night
A          B7               E     A    F#m                                    B7
and in my heart it gripped tightly and something said son what He's doing is right
A        B7              C#m        A       B7         E
