I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day – by Jimmie Rodgers
Chords by Russ Doiron
(Capo 3)
I HCeard the Bells on G7Christmas Day
CTheir old familiar Dmcarols pG7lay,
CAnd wild and sweet the Ewords Amrepeat
COf peace on earth, good G7will to Cmen.
CI thought how, as the G7day had come,
CThe belfries of all DmChristendG7om
CHad rolled along the unEbroken Amsong
COf peace on earth, good G7will to Cmen.
(Capo 4) – key change: ½ step up
CAnd in despair I G7bowed my head:
C"There is no peacDme on earthG7," I said,
C"For hate is strongE and mocksAm the song
COf peace on earth, good G7will to Cmen."
CThen pealed the bells more G7loud and deep:
C"God is not dead,Dm nor dotG7h he sleep;
CThe wrong shall fail, the Eright Amprevail,
CWith peace on earth, good G7will to Cmen."
