1. A spaceman came travelling in his ship from afar,
C G F G
t`was light-years of time since his mission did start,
Am G F Am
and over a village he halted his craft,
C G F G F G Am G Am
and it hung in the sky like a star ---- just like a star.
Am C G Am
2. He followed a light and came down to a shed,
C G F G
where a mother and child were lying there on a bed,
Am G F Am
a bright light of silver shone round his head,
C G F G F G Am G Am
and he had the face of an angel ---- and they were afraid.
Am C G Am
3. And the stranger spoke, he said : 'Do not fear!'
C G F G
I come from a planet a long way from here,
Am G F Am
and I bring a message for mankind to hear,
C G F G F G Am G Am
and suddenly the sweetest music ---- filled the air.
F G Am G F Am - C G F - G - Am G F Am
and it went : 'Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala,
C G F G F G A G Am
peace and goodwill to all men, ---- and love for the child.
F G Am G F Am - C G F - G - Am G F Am - C G F Am -G Am
And it went :' Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala.'

4. This lovely music went trembling through the ground,
C G F G
and many were waken on hearing that sound,
Am G F Am
and travellers on the road, the village they found,
C G F G F G Am
by the light of that star in the sky ---- which shone on now.
Am C G Am
5. And just before dawn, at the paling of the sky,
C G F G
the stranger returned and said :'Now I must fly.
Am G F Am
When two thousand years of your time have gone by,
C G F G F G Am G Am
this song will begin once again ---- to a baby`s cry!'
F G Am G F Am - C G F - G - Am G F Am
And it went : 'Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala
C G F G F G Am G Am
this song will begin once again ---- to a baby`s cry.'

And it goes :'Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala
C G F G F G Am
peace and goodwill to all men, -----and love for the child.

Oh, the whole world is waiting.
Am G F Am
Lalalala..... waiting to hear this song again,

spacemen are standing on the edge of the world,
G Am G F Am
and the star is glowing somewhere in eternity,
C G F G F G Am
This song will begin once again ---- to a baby`s cry.'
