CHRISTMAS MUST BE TONIGHT- The Band

G Em G Em

G Am

Come down to the manger, see the little stranger

C D G

Wrapped in swaddling clothes, the prince of peace

G Am

Wheels start turning, torches start burning

C D G

And the old wise men journey from the East

CHORUS:

Em D C G

How a little baby boy bring the people so much joy

Am

Son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light

D G

This must be Christmas, must be tonight

A shepherd on a hillside, while over my flock I bide

Oh a cold winter night a band of angels sing

In a dream I heard a voice saying "fear not, come rejoice

It's the end of the beginning, praise the new born king"

CHORUS

I saw it with my own eyes, written up in the skies

But why a simple herdsmen such as I

And then it came to pass, he was born at last

Right below the star that shines on high

CHORUS

(from Islands, 1977)
