-Note-
The original song is in the key of Bb. If you (like me)
don't enjoy playing in this key feel free to adjust the
key down 3 steps, and use a capo on the 3rd fret, using
G shapes.



[Intro]
Gm


[Verse 1]
       Gm                        F     Bb
For a hundred years the silence ends tonight
        Gm                   F      Bb
What a mystery beneath this starry light
 Gm                     F     Bb
Longing for a voice we never heard
           Gm                      F         Bb
Tonight he opens up his mouth and speaks his word


[Chorus 1]
Eb
Rise up all you orphans
              Bb
You’ve got a brand new family
 Eb
Rise up all you debtors

It’s the year of jubilee
 Eb
Rise up all you sinners
            Gm
He’s gonna chase your guilt away
      Cm                                 F
Yeah everything you’ve known’s about to change
                      Gm
When a baby saves the day

[Verse 2]
       Gm                         F      Bb
We’ve stumbled ‘neath the burden for so long
      Gm                          F       Bb
Just when it seemed that all our hope was gone
    Gm                 F       Bb
The very word of God, born in flesh
          Gm                      F    Bb
Is gonna bring an end to all our brokenness


[Chorus 1]

When a baby saves      the day


[Bridge]
          Cm                         Gm
Well it’s not how we expected him to come (not how we expected him to come)
           F                              Eb
Oh it surprises and confounds the wisest ones (wisest ones)
        Cm                       Gm
But to every searching sinner and every saint
                 F
What a glorious day
         F                       Eb  Bb  F   Eb  Bb  F
Oh hallelujah, hallelujah what a day

You’ve got a brand new family
 Eb
Rise up all you debtors
          Bb
It’s the year of jubilee
 Eb
Rise up all you sinners
            Gm
He’s gonna chase your guilt away

So rise up all you fighters
            Bb
Its time to love your enemies
       Eb
Oh and all you warring nations
           Bb
There’s a reason now for peace
       Eb
Every thief and every liar
        Bb
Oh and every king and slave
         Cm                   F
Sing hallelujah, oh sing hallelujah
                  Eb  Bb  F
A baby saves the day
                  Eb  Bb  F
A baby saves the day
