Sting - Gabriels Message – If On A Winters Night

this is probably not how he plays it , but it works .

Em Am D Em
the angel gabriel from heaven came;
Em C Am D7
his wings as drifted snow , his eyes as flame ,
Em C Am D7
’’all hail’’ said he , ’’thou lowly maiden ma – – ry ,
C D7 Em Am D7
most highly favored lady , glo – – oooo – – ria!’’
Em D7 Em
( glo – – oooo – – ria! )

’’for known a blessed mother thou shalt be ,
all generations laud and honor thee ,
thy son shall be emmanuel , by seers foretold ,
most highly favored lady . ’’ gloria!
( gloria! )

then gentle mary meekly bowed her head ,
’’to me be as it pleaseth god , ’’ she said ,
’’my soul shall laud and magnify his holy name , ’’
most highly favoured lady , gloria!
( gloria! )
