I was walkin' home from school on a cold winter day.
G                      Em          C          C     D
Took a short cut through the woods and I lost my way.
G                   D    Em            C
  It was gettin' late,   and I was scared and alone.
G             Em7                 C      C           D
But then a kind old man took my hand     and led me home.

  Sent down to us from somewhere up above.
             G       Em7   C                D
They come to you and me in our darkest hours

When life held troubled times and had me down on my knees,
        G               Em7          C                D
There's always been someone to come along and comfort me.

A kind word from a stranger, to lend a helping hand,

A phone call from a friend just to say, “I understand.”

     C                   Gsus2          C             D
That someone lights the way with just a single ray of hope.
