D C

Somewhere in Vietnam a 19 year old soldier walked out of a bar room,

C D

And he said I must be seeing things that bourbon hit me like a baseball bat.

D C

In Belfast, Ireland a little lady dropped her shovel in her garden,

C D

She raced across the yard and asked her neighbor Mrs. Clancy what was that?

D C

In Memphis, Tennessee a teacher raised the window closest to the river,

C D

And the children in her classroom swore they heard a choir singing down the street.

D C

In Washington, DC a private secretary's lips began to quiver,

C D

And the President just put aside his papers and rose quickly to his feet.

E D

I lay in a cheap motel in the arms of someone else's woman

D E

When a loud explosion rocked the room and turned the morning into night.

E D

I jumped out of bed and ran into the streets with hardly any clothes on

D E

As the sky lit up my heart stood still and I could feel my face was turning white.

A E

All at once the clouds rolled back and there stood Jesus Christ in all his glory,

E B

And I realized the saddest eyes I'd ever seen were looking straight at me.

D C

I guess I was awakened by the penetrating sound of my own screaming,

C D

And it didn't take me long to stumble out of bed and fall down on my knees.

D C

As tears rolled down my face I cried dear God I'm thankful I was only dreaming,

C D

And if I never go to Hell, Lord, it'll be because you scared it out of me.
