G C D G

Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible say,

G C G D7 G

Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.

Chorus:

G C D7 G Em C D

Hark, now hear the angels sing, a new king born today, and

G D/A G/B C G D7 G

man will live for evermore, because of Christmas day.

G C D7 G Em C D

Trumpets sound and angels sing, listen to what they say, that

G D/A C G D7 G

man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day.

While shepherds watch their flocks by night,

them see a bright new shining star,

them hear a choir sing, the music seemed to come from afar.

Now Joseph and his wife, Mary, come to Bethlehem that night,

them find no place to born the child, not a single room was in sight.

By and by they find a little nook in a stable all forlorn,

and in a manger cold and dark, Mary's little boy was born.

Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible say,

Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.
