Intro: G Am Em Em (x2)
G Am C
I heard the bells on Christmas Day
G Am Em
Their old, familiar carols play,
G Am
and wild and sweet
C
The words repeat
C
Of peace on earth, good-will....to men!
G Am Em Em (x2)
G Am C
Till ringing, singing on its way,
G Am Em
The world revolved from night to day,
G Am
A voice, a chime,
C
A chant sublime
C
Of peace on earth, good-will....to men!
G Am Em Em (x4)
G Am C
And in despair I bowed my head;
G Am Em
"There is no peace on earth," I said;
G Am
"For hate is strong,
C
And mocks the song
C C
Of peace on earth, good-will....to men!"
G Am C
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
G Am Em
"God is not dead, And not asleep;
G Am
The Wrong shall fail,
C
The Right prevail,
C (G)
With Peace on earth, good-will to men
G Am Em Em
Peace on earth, good-will to men [x3]
C G
Peace on earth, good-will to men
