_ _ [A#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] Gotta get plugged in here [A#] first.
My guitar.
_ I'd like to send this one out to Glendale, West Virginia and
_ _ _ _ [D#] _ _ _
This is a Christmas song that I wrote [F#] it's called born on Christmas Day
_ _ _ [G#] _ _
_ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ [C#] _ _
[F#] _ It was a cold and dark
[B]
December [C#] night, but a star still lit the [F#] sky
_ _ [D#m] _ Away in [B] a manger
_ [C#] You heard a baby [F#] cry _
It [D#m] was the cry [F#] of the [A#] Son of God [C#] a little baby [F#] boy _
_ _ [B] _ born [C#] in that manger
_ [B] To [C#] bring the world [F#] joy
So hush up [G#] little _ baby
[B] No, [C#] not what [F#] you'll do _
_ [D#m] You'll bring the [B] world peace and love [G#m] and teach them [C#] while you do
You [B] have nothing to [G#] fear because you [F#] know God is with [C#] you all [D#m] the way _ _
_ _ _ [B] That little [C#] important baby
_ _ [B] Born [C#] on [F#] Christmas Day
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C#] _
_ _ _ _ [G#] _ _ [C#] many _ people
Soon [F#] gathered round [G#] that tiny run [C#]-down bar
_ [Cm] _ [A#m] _
_ They [F#] knew not [G#] what they saw
_ _ _ _ _ [F#]
They came three [G#] all dressed in [C#] fancy robes
[G#] silks [A#m] and furs
This [F#] was the first
_ [G#] Indication of [F#] the [G#] importance of [C#] his birth _ _ _
_ so [F#] hush
a [G#] little baby
_ _ _ [F#] No, [G#] not what [C#] you'll do
_ [A#m] You'll bring the [F#] world
Peace and love [D#m] and teach them [G#] while you do
You have nothing to fear because you [C#] know that [C] God will [A#m] lead the way
_ _ _ _ [F#] That little important [G#] baby
_ _ [F#]
Born on [C#] Christmas Day _ _ _
We
[F#] _ _ expected [G#] a _
soldier
[F#] _ [G#] Save us from [C#] our plight
_ [A#m] all dressed in [F#] shiny armor
_ [G#] _ Ready for a fight
but [F#] instead he [D#] said
[G#]
little [C#] baby [G#] boy _ [A#m] I
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _
Filled with [G#] love and happiness
_ [F#] Bring [G#] the world [C#] joy _ _ _ _
so [F#] much
_ little [G#] _
baby
_ [F#] [G#] No, not what [C#] you'll do
_ [A#m] You'll bring the world
[F#] Peace and love [D#m] and teach them while [G#] you do
You [F#] have nothing to fear [G#] because you know [C#] that God [G#] will lead [A#m] the way
_ _ _ _ [F#] That little important [G#] baby
_ _ [F#] Born on [C#] Christmas Day _ _ _ _
