A Ammaj7 Am6
E
Standing at the altar
     C#m
With his bride to be beside
A
Through the stained glass window
   B7sus4
Came down a beam of light
  E
The weight of the commitment
   C#m
Poured over him with fear
   A
Like ice cream in a filling
    B7sus4
Now the future's finally here

 C#      C#sus4
His soul had been replenished
F#m       F#7sus4 F#m
By the words the vicar read
C#      C#sus4
The organist dissected
Bm       Bsus4   Bm
All the pieces she'd been fed

A B    E
O--pen your hands
         C#m
Where once was a steeple
A   Ammaj7 Am6
Then look  within
C#m      Bm11
At all of the people
A E/G#   F#m
Family and friends
     F#m7
In this congregation
B/D# D    A
O-pen your heart
    Ammaj7 Am6
To this celebration

E
The choir pitched in early
    C#m
As his heart began to rip
    A
His anxiety was swollen
     B7sus4
With the quiver of a lip
E
He looked around the chapel
    C#m
Seeing everybody there
  A              B7sus4
He slowly fell to pieces and was only too aware

C#      C#sus4
The vows were something special
F#m       F#7sus4
So much deeper than he'd thought
C#      C#sus4
Commitment bound in footsteps
Bm       B7sus4   Bm
That would be a lifelong walk


A B    E
O--pen your hands
         C#m
Where once was a steeple
A   Ammaj7 Am6
Then look  within

E                C#m
Standing in the picture with his family all around
A
Proud to see their Father
     B7sus4
Finally put the anchor down
E               C#m
She had offered amnesty for a multitude of sins
A                   B7sus4
Through the stained glass window her love shone down on him
