You could โve come like a might y (D)storm,
with all the strength of a hur ri (Dmaj7)cane.
You could โve come (Asus)like a for est (Bm)fire,
with the (Em)pow er of heav en in Your (Asus)flame.
But You (Em9)came like a win ter snow:
(D)qui et and soft and (G)slow;
(Em9)fall ing from the (D)sky in the (Gmaj7)night to the (A7sus)earth be (D)low.
You could โve swept in like a tid al (Bm7)wave,
or in an (Em9)o cean to rav ish our (Dmaj7)hearts.
You could โve (G)come through
like a roar ing (Bm)flood,
to (Em9)wipe a (A7sus)way the things weโve (D)scarred.
(F#7)Oh, but You
Ooh, (Bm)no, Your (F#m)voice was nโt (Gmaj7)in a (A)bush burn ing.
No, Your (F#m)voice was nโt (Gmaj7)in a (A)rush ing (F#)wind.
It was (F#m)still, it was (Gmaj7)small, it was (A)hid (F#)den.
(Em)Oh,
You (D)came like a win ter snow:
(D)qui et and soft and (G)slow,
(Em9)fall ing from the (D)sky in the (Gmaj7)night to the (A7sus)earth be low.
(Asus)You (F#)came (Bm)fall ing from the (D)sky in the (Gmaj7)night to the (Asus)earth be low.
