Comments, corrections, etc. welcome
G C D G
Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible say,
G C G D7 G
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.
Chorus:
G C D7 G Em C D
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a new king born today, and
G D/A G/B C G D7 G
man will live for evermore, because of Christmas day.
G C D7 G Em C D
Trumpets sound and angels sing, listen to what they say, that
G D/A C G D7 G
man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day.
While shepherds watch their flocks by night,
them see a bright new shining star,
them hear a choir sing, the music seemed to come from afar.
Now Joseph and his wife, Mary, come to Bethlehem that night,
them find no place to born the child, not a single room was in sight.
By and by they find a little nook in a stable all forlorn,
and in a manger cold and dark, Mary's little boy was born.
Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible say,
Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.
