New Star Shining
Ricky Scaggs
capo in 4th fret
C G F Am7 G
They didn't own a house No crib, no toys were waiting
F c Dm C G
Still, they had their love for the child they were anticipating
C G F Am7 G
He was born one winter night on a road between two towns
F C F G
They wrapped Him up so warm and tight and said, "It looks like heaven's come
C
down."
(chorus)
F G C F
There was a new star shining in the sky up above
Am G F Am7 G
By His light that winter night they found peace and perfect love
F G Am7 F
If we want to find it, I know we always will
F G C
'Cause that new star is shining for us still
C F Dm Am7 G
They worried how to feed Him. Simple trade was all they knew
F C Dm Am7 G
It was hard enough to make ends meet when they were only two
C G F Am7 G
But the cold, the dark, and hunger, couldn't take away their joy
F C G C
And they knew that they would find a way for that precious baby boy
(chorus)
F G C F
There was a new star shining in the sky up above
Am G F Am7 G
By His light that winter night they found peace and perfect love
F G Am7 F
If we want to find it, I know we always will
F G C
'Cause that new star is shining for us still
F G Am7 F
If we want to find it, I know we always will
F G C F C
'Cause that new star is shining for us still
