Intro: D
D Em
Shadows darken and the day is done
F#m G
And I cannot believe
D
It's really true and you have gone
Em A
You were always here beside me
D Em
You gave so much as the Queen of Hearts
F#m G
To those without love
D
You were their voice when they could not speak
Em A
A touch for the dying
D Bm
And as we say goodbye I can hardly see
G D A
For the tears in my eyes
D Bm
You are shining like a million suns
G A D
And there's a new star up in Heaven tonight
D Em
I wonder if you ever knew
F#m G
How much you were loved
D
And in the darkness of a lonely room
Em A
Were you empty inside?
D Em
And as you fade away, it's like a light
F#m G
Has gone from the world
D
But I am sure that there is a place
Em A
Where you will burn on forever
D Bm
And as we say goodbye, I can hardly see
G D A
For the tears in my eyes
D Bm
You are shining like a million suns
G A D Bm
And there's a new star up in Heaven tonight
G A D
And there's a new star up in Heaven tonight
