F CIt's Christmas time, and there's no need to be afraid
F CAt Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shade
F G C FAnd in our world of plenty, we can spread a smile of joy
F G Throw your arms around the world
CAt Christmas time
F G CBut say a prayer - to pray for the other ones
F G CAt Christmas time, it's hard but when you're having fun
F GThere's a world outside your window,
C Fand it's a world of dread and fear
Dm G C FWhere the only water flowing, is the bitter sting of tears
Dm GAnd the Christmas bells that ring there
C Fare the clanging chimes of doom
Dm G CWell tonight thank God it’s them instead of you
F G CAnd there won’t be snow in Africa this Christmastime
F G CThe greatest gift they’ll get this year is life
F G C FWhere nothing ever grows, no rain or rivers flow
Dm G CDo they know it’s Christmas time at all
Am GHere’s to you raise a glass for everyone

While shepherds watched their flock by night,They saw a bright new shining starthey hear a choir singThe music seemed to come from afar.
Hark, now hear the angels sing,
Joseph and his wife, Mary,Came to Bethlehem that night,They found no place to bear her child,Not a single room was in sight.
Hark, now hear the angels sing,
By and by they find a little nookIn a stable all forlorn,And in a manger cold and dark,Mary's little boy was born.
Hark, now hear the angels sing,

G Am - EmHappiness hit her like a train on a track
G Am - EmComing towards her stuck still no turning back
G She hid it 'round corners and she hid it under beds
Am EmShe killed it with kisses and from it she fled
G With every bubble she sank with her drink
Am EmAnd washed it away down the kitchen sink
GThe dog days are overThe dog days are done
AmThe horses are coming
EmSo you better run
G Run fast for your mother, run fast for your fatherRun for your children, for your sisters and brothers
AmLeave all your love and your longing behind
EmYou can't carry it with you if you want to survive
GThe dog days are overThe dog days are done
AmCan you hear the horses?
Em‘Cause here they come
G Am EmAnd I never wanted anything from you
G Am EmExcept everything you had and what was left after that too, oh
G Am - EmHappiness hit her like a bullet in the back
G Am EmStruck from a great height by someone who should know better than that
GThe dog days are overThe dog days are done
AmCan you hear the horses?
Em‘Cause here they come
G Run fast for your mother, run fast for your fatherRun for your children, for your sisters and brothers
