_ _ [Bb] Once _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ [Db] _ _ [Eb] in Royal _ _ [Bb] David [F] City _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
Stood [Eb] a lonely _ _ [F] cattle shed
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Fm]
Where [Eb] a mother _ held [Bb] her baby
_ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [Db] You'd do well [Ab] to remember [Eb] the [Bb] things she [Eb] later _
[Bb] said
[F] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [Db] When you're stopping [Ab]
yourself at [Eb] the Christmas [Bb] _ parties
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Db] You'll just [Ab] laugh when I tell you [Eb] to take [Bb] a running jump _ _
_ _ _ _ [Db] You're missing [Ab] the point, [Eb] I'm sure does not [Bb] leave me aching
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Db] That Christmas [Ab] spirit [Eb] is _ not what [Bb] you think _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Db] So how [Ab] can you laugh [Eb] when your own [Bb] mother's hungry? _ _ _
_ [Db] And how [Ab] can you smile [Eb] when the reasons [Bb] for smiling are wrong? _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Db] And if [Ab] I've just messed [Eb] up your _ [Bb] thoughtless _ pleasures _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Db]
Remember, if you [Ab] wish, [Eb] this is just a Christmas _ _ [Bb] song _ _
