May It Be - chords and lyrics

It's that 'lull' just after Christmas and with time on my hands, I've found myself playing a lot more guitar. The Mrs likes this Celtic-style song, "May It Be", so I've been playing it for her. Now here it is - on my blog to have access to wherever in the world we find ourselves. If you have the song handy, and your guitar is in standard tuning - you can play along whilst it is playing...
One day I hope to be able to play this on pan-flute.

May It Be

First thing, Capo on 2

Em                           C
May it be an evening star
G                     D
Shines down upon you
Em                                 C
May it be when darkness falls
G                        D
Your heart will be true
        C                 G
You walk a lonely road
            Am                     D
Oh how far you are from home
G     Em   C     D
M-ornie    Utuli"e
G               C          Am         D
Believe and you will find your way
G     Em    C      D
M-ornie    Alan-ti"e
G        Em       Am           D
A promise lives within you now
Em                              C
May it be the shadows call
       G      D
Will fly away
Em                              C
May it be your journey on
     G           D
To li-ght the day
               C                D
When the night is overcome
              Am                 D
You may rise to find the sun
G     Em   C     D
M-ornie    Utuli"e
G               C          Am         D
Believe and you will find your way
G     Em    C      D
M-ornie    Alan-ti"e
G        Em       Am           D
A promise lives within you now
G        Em       Am      D   G    
A promise lives within you now
