I need some quick and dirty guitar chords for the Gorka

version of the song "Christmas Bells." It's the one

that's on the Windham Hill "A Winter's Solstice III."

Christmas Bells - John Gorka

Capo 3

| C | G6 | Fmaj7-6 | Am G | F | Am G | F G | Am G | F | Fmaj7 |

C G6

I heard the bells on Christmas day

Fmaj7-6 Am G

Their old familiar carols play

F Am G

And wild and sweet, the words repeat

F G Am G

Of peace on earth, good will to men

F G C

Peace on earth, good will to men

C G6

I thought how, as the day had come

Fmaj7-6 Am G

The belfries of all Christendom

F Am G

Had rolled along the unbroken song

F G Am G

Of peace on earth, good will to men

F G C

Peace on earth, good will to men

Fmaj7-6 Am G

And in despair, I bowed my head

F Am G

"There is no peace on earth," I said

F Am G

For hate is strong, and mocks the song

F G Am G

Of peace on earth, good will to men

F G C

Peace on earth, good will to men

| C | G6 | Fmaj7-6 | Am G | F | Am G | F G | Am G | F | Fmaj7 |

C G6

Then pealed the bells, more loud and deep

Fmaj7-6 Am G

God is not dead, nor doth he sleep

F Am G

The wrong shall fail, the right prevail

F G Am G

With peace on earth, good will to men

F G C

Peace on earth, good will to men

C G6

I heard the bells on Christmas day

Fmaj7-6 Am G

Their old familiar carols play

F Am G

Wild and sweet, the words repeat

F G Am G

Of peace on earth, good will to men

F G C

Peace on earth, good will to men

F G Am

Peace on earth, good will to men
