[Cm] It came [F]
upon [C] a midnight clear, [F] that glorious [D] song [Gm]
of old, [C] from [F] angels bending near [Am] the

touch [G] their harps of [Ab] gold.

[Bb]
[Ab] Listen [Eb] children to our [Fm] story that was written [Eb] long ago,
[Db] about a kingdom [Cm] on a mountain [Bbm] and the valley [Eb] folk below.
[Ab] On a mountain [Eb] was a treasure [Fm] buried deep [Eb] beneath the stone,
[Db] and the valley [Cm] people [Bbm] swore that they'd have it for [Ab] their own.
[Db]
[Ab] Go ahead and hate [Cm] your neighbor, [Db] go ahead and cheat [Ab] a friend,
do it in the name [Cm]
[Db] and justify it in [Ab] the end.
Hold me at your [Cm] trumpet's blowin', [Ab] I'll call the judge one day,
on the bloody morning [Db] after.
One tin soldier [Ab] rise away, [Db] [Ab]
[Db] [Ab] so the [Gm] people of the valley [Fm] sent a [Eb] message up the hill,
[Db] asking for [Ab] the buried treasure, [Bbm] tons of gold [Eb] for which they'd kill.
[Ab] Came an answer [Gm] from the kingdom, [Fm] with our [Eb] brothers we will share,
[Db] all the secrets [Ab] of our mountain, [Bbm] all the riches [Bb] buried [Ab] there.
[A] [D]
[A] Now the valley [E] cried with [Gbm] anger, mount your [A] horses, draw your [D] swords,
and they killed [A] the mountain [B] people, so they won their just [E] reward.
[A] Now they stood [E] beside that treasure, [Gbm] on the mountain [E] dark and red,
[D] turned the stone [A] and looked [Bm] beneath it, peace on earth [D]
was [A] all it said.
Above
[G] [A] the [Dm] sad and [Db] [Dm] lonely plains, [C] they [D] bend on [Em] [C]
hovering wing,
[F]
the [A] [C] world in [Bb] solemn [F] stillness slain, [Bb] to hear [C] the angels [F]
sing.
