Intro:
G---Em---G---Em
Verse 1:
Come down to the Gmanger, see the little Amstranger
DWrapped in swaddling, oh the Cprince of Gpeace
the Wheels start Gturning, torches start Amburning
And the Dold wise men journey Cfrom the GEast
Chorus:
How a Emlittle baby Amboy bring the Dpeople so much Gjoy
Am-B-C Am-B-C
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
This must be AmChristmas, must Dbe Gtonight Em
G---Em
Verse 2:
A shepherd on a Ghillside, where over my Amflock I bide
On a coDld winter night a band of Cangels Gsing
In a dream I Gheard a voice saying "fear Amnot, come rejoice
It's the eDnd of the beginning, praise the Cnew born Gking"
(Repeat Chorus)
G---Em
Verse 3:
I saw it with Gmy own eyes, written up Amin the skies
But Dwhy a simple herdsmen Csuch as GI
And then it Gcame to pass, he was Amborn at last
DRight below the star that Cshines on Ghigh
(Repeat Chorus)
G---Em

Am-B-C Am-B-C
Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light
