Intro: D-G-D-G-D

  D                                   G                     D 
Factories are all shut down and the shopping malls are all closed
                           A                           D
The busy streets are all empty except for the falling snow
                                    G                 D
In the small towns, in the cities families gather as one
                               A                               D
'Cause the night of love and sharing they look forward to has come

Chorus
            G        A            D             
Tonight is Christmas, tonight is love
  Bm        G              A            D
Tonight we celebrate God's one and only Son
                 G                 A         D      Bm  
Tonight there's hope for peace on earth eternally
             Em                A          D       Bm 
Tonight is Christmas and the world's in harmony    

(Advance To “E”)
 
E                        A                                E
But across the seas two armies stare down at each other's guns
                          B                                    E
Each believing in their cause enough to die or kill the other one
                               A                               E
But tonight there'll be no shooting, not a drop of blood will spill
                                        B                               E
They will cease their fire this silent night in the name of peace and goodwill


(Repeat Chorus In “E”)

Tonight there's hope for peace on earth eternally

Tonight is Christmas and the world's in harmony
