[F#m] [F#m] [F] [F#]
[B] [E] [G] [Em] Now we have washed the floor, [A] and we have [E] buried it,
And we [C#m] have put up the [Em] haystack, [F#] and we [B] have put up the tree.
[Em] Now we sit down and [A] rest, and breathe [E] for a while,
[B] While I [E] back the [G] wagon, [F#] like your brother [E] before a blind.
[B]
[Em] Pull the cart over to [A] the glass, so we sit [E] down and watch,
And try [C#] to find the lay [F#] where the Christmas [B] star [A] is.
[Em] The brightest of all, [A] she is so [E] clear and big,
[F#] She looks from [E] the roof, [C#]
[F#] where [B] grandmother [Em] Matthea [F] lives.
[F#] [B]
[E] [Em] She is so kind, the [A] star, she shines, [G#m] you can [E] see,
And now [C#m] I will tell [F#] you, so you can [B] listen.
[Em] The first time she shined, [A] she made [E] a bridge,
[B] In the middle of the [E] sea and [C#] heaven, [F#] reached a [Bm] crib [E] and a [F] cow.
[F#] [B]
[E] [Em] In the crib lay a little [A] boy, so pure and [E] good,
And mother [C#m] spread the tent, [F#] and father [B] stood and [F#m] laughed,
[Em] And looked for the boy, [A] where around the crib,
[E] And [B] the little [Em] [C#] lamb, [F#] which [B] the boy [E] should [C#] see.
[F#] [B]
[E] [Em] Yes, the count of three wise [A] men, they roamed for [E] several days,
And no one [C#] knew the way, [F#] and no [F#m] one saved,
[Em] But the star shone, and [A] the sky was [E] blue,
[F#m] So [B] no one [Em] took them, [C#] and [F#] all [B] [E] three went away.
[B] [F#] [B]
[E] Yes, it was the first time, [A] the Christmas [E] star burned,
And [G] see, [C#m] it has burned, [F#] in [C#] all the [B] world's land,
[Em] And like [G] her, [A] the star is [E] just as big,
[F#] She [G] looks from [E] the [C#] roof, [F#m] where [B] grandmother [Em] Matthea lives.
