New Star Shining Ricky Skaggs
capo in 4th fret
(1st verse)
[C]They didn't own a house [G]No crib, no toys were[Am7] waiting[C] [G]
[C]Still, they had their love [G]for the child t[Dm]hey were anticipating[C] [G]
He was born [C]one winter night on a[G] road between [Am]two towns[C] [G]
[Dm] [Am7] [F]
[C]They wrapped Him up so warm and tight and said, "It looks like heaven's come
down."
(chorus)
There was a new st[F]ar shining in[G] the sky up above[Am7] [C]
[Dm] [Am7] [Dm] [C]
[G]By His light that winter night they found peace and perfect love
If we w[F]ant to find[G] it, I kno[Am7]w we alway[C]s will[F]
'Cause that new s[Dm]tar is shining[G] for us still[C]
(2nd verse)
[C] [G] [Am7]
[C]The[G]y worried how to feed Him. Simple trade was all they knew
[Dm] [Am7] [Dm]
[C]It [G]was hard enough to make ends meet when they were only two
[C] [G] [Am7]
[C]Bu[G]t the cold, the dark, and hunger, couldn't take away their joy
[Dm] [Am7] [F]
[C]And they knew that they would find a way for that precious baby boy
(chorus)
There was a new st[F]ar shining in[G] the sky up above[Am7] [C]
[Dm] [Am7] [Dm] [C]
[G]By His light that winter night they found peace and perfect love
If we w[F]ant to find[G] it, I kno[Am7]w we alway[C]s will[F]
'Cause that new s[Dm]tar is shining[G] for us still[C]
If we w[F]ant to find[G] it, I kno[Am7]w we alway[C]s will[F]
'Cause that new s[Dm]tar is shining[G] for us still[C]
This song was obviously released for Christmas. But Mr Skaggs also released
it on an album quite some time ago. I had this album at one time. But
since lost track of it. Hope you enjoy it. I still do.
