A spaceman [F] came traveling [C] on his ship from [Dm] afar.
It was light [C] years of time [Bb] since his mission did [C] start.
[Dm] And over [Am] a village [Bb] he halted his [Dm] craft.
[F] And it hung in [C] the sky [Bb] like a star.
Just like [D] a [Dm] star.
He followed [F] a light and [C] came down [Dm] to a shed.
[F] Where a mother [C] and child were [Bb] lying there on a bed.
[C] [Dm] A bright [Am] light of silver [Bb] shone round [Dm] his head.
[Gm] [F] And he had [C] the face [Bb] of an angel.
And [C] they [Dm] were afraid.
Then the stranger [F] spoke.
[C] He said, do not [Dm] fear.
[F] I come [C] from a planet [Bb] a long way from [C] here.
[Dm] And I bring [Am] a message [Bb] for mankind to [Dm] hear.
[F] Suddenly [C] the sweetest [Bb] music filled [C] [Dm] the air.
[Bb] And [F] it [Dm] went.
