_ [Gm] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _
[Bb] _ [Eb] A _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _
ray of hope _ _ [Bb] _
flickers in [Eb] the sky
[Ab] _ [Eb] A _ tiny _ star _ [Ab] lights [Eb] up way up [Bb] _ high _ _
_ [Ab] All across the land [Bb] _
dawns a brand [Gm] new war
_ [Cm] This comes to [Bb] _ pass [Fm] when a child [Eb] is born
[Ab] _ [Eb] A _ silent wish _ _ [Bb] _
sails the seven [Eb] _ seas _ _
The winds of change _ [Ab] whisper [Eb] in the [Bb] _ _ _ trees _
And [Ab] the watered-down _ [Bb] rumble [Gm] fast and torn
[Eb] This comes to [Bb] _ _ pass [Fm] when [Bb] a child [Eb] is [Ab] born
_ [Eb] A _ rosy hue _ _ _ [Bb] settles all [Eb] around
[Ab] _ [Eb] _ _ You've got the _ feel, [Ab] you're [Eb] off solid [Bb] ground
_ _ _ For [Ab] a spell or two, [Bb] no one seems [Gm] _ forlorn
_ [Cm] _ This comes to [Bb] pass _ _ [Fm] when [Bb] a child [Eb] is born
[Ab] _ _ [Eb] And _ _ _ _ all [Bb] of this happens because [Eb] the world is waiting
[Ab] _ [Eb] Waiting for one child, _ _ black, white, [Ab] yellow, _ [Gm]
no one knows
[Bb] But a child that will grow up and [Ab] turn tears to laughter
[Bb] Hate to love, war to peace, and [Eb] everyone to everyone's neighbor
[Ab]
And [Bb] misery and suffering will be [Fm] words to be forgotten [Bb] _ [Eb] forever _ _ _ _
[Bb] It's all [Eb] a dream, _ _ [Bb] an illusion [Eb] _ [Ab] now
[Eb] It _ must come true, _ [Ab] sometime [Eb] soon [Bb] somehow _ _ _ _
All _ [Ab] across the [Bb] land dawns a brand [Gm] new war
_ [Cm] This comes to [Bb] _ _ pass [Fm] when [Bb] a child [Eb] is born
[Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
