Verse
Dsus2add6   Dsus2        G6      Dsus2
   They said there'll be snow at Christmas 
Dsus2add6   Dsus2        G6      Dsus2
   They said there'll be peace on earth
Dsus2add6   Dsus2      G6      Dsus2
   But instead it just kept on raining
Dsus2add6    Dsus2         G6       Dsus2
   A veil of tears for the Virgin's birth

   I remember one Christmas morning 
  C9       G/B         A7sus4    D
A winter’s light and a distant choir
        D         A/C#          G/B            D/A
And the peal of a bell and that Christmas tree smell 
          D/G#         D/F#       D
And their eyes full of tinsel and fire

   They sold me a dream of Christmas 
Dsus2add6   Dsus2  G6      Dsus2
   They sold me a silent night 
Dsus2add6   Dsus2     G6    Dsus2
   And they told me a fairy story 
Dsus2add6   Dsus2         G6   Dsus2
   'Til I believed in the Israelite

   And I believed in Father Christmas 
      C9        G/B            A7sus4  D 
And I looked at the sky with excited eyes 
       D           A/C#        G/B            D/A
'Til I woke with a yawn in the first light of dawn 
      D/G#         D/F#          D
And I saw him and through his disguise

Dsus2add6   Dsus2   G6    Dsus2

   All anguish, pain and sadness 
Dsus2add6     Dsus2              G6      Dsus2
   Leave your heart and let your road be clear
