[C]Our home is in shambles
[F]All I've treasured is [G7]gone
The [C]town seems deserted
[F]Everyone's so forlorn
[Fm]A storm came from up above
But some[C]how it missed
The [F]Shrine of [G7]Saint [C]Cecilia
The bells in the chapel
[F]Never ring any[G7]more
The [C]clock in the steeple
Can't [F]tell time as before
[Fm]But up on the hillside
Stands a [C]place heaven blessed
The [F]Shrine of [G7]Saint [C]Cecilia
[F]Each day at even [C]tide
When I [F]seek haven from my [G7]daily [C]care
You'll [D7]find me by her side
It seems so peaceful [G7]there
[C]I kneel in my solitude [F]and silently [G7]pray
That [C]heaven will protect you dear
And [F]there'll come a day
[Fm]The storm will be over and [C]that we'll meet again
At the [F]Shrine of [G7]Saint [C]Cecilia
[F]Each day at even [C]tide
When I [F]seek haven from my [G7]daily [C]care
You'll [D7]find me by her side
It seems so peaceful [G7]there
[C]I kneel in my solitude [F]and silently [G7]pray
That [C]heaven will protect you dear
And [F]there'll come a day
[Fm]The storm will be over and [C]that we'll meet again
At the [F]Shrine of [G7]Saint [C]Cecilia
Our home is in shambles
All I've treasured is gone
The town seems deserted
Everyone's so forlorn
A storm came from up above
But somehow it missed
The Shrine of Saint Cecilia
The bells in the chapel
Never ring anymore
The clock in the steeple
Can't tell time as before
But up on the hillside
Stands a place heaven blessed
The Shrine of Saint Cecilia
Each day at even tide
When I seek haven from my daily care
You'll find me by her side
It seems so peaceful there
I kneel in my solitude and silently pray
That heaven will protect you dear
And there'll come a day
The storm will be over and that we'll meet again
At the Shrine of Saint Cecilia
Each day at even tide
When I seek haven from my daily care
You'll find me by her side
It seems so peaceful there
I kneel in my solitude and silently pray
That heaven will protect you dear
And there'll come a day
The storm will be over and that we'll meet again
At the Shrine of Saint Cecilia
