1. A spaceman came travelling in his ship from afar,

              C                   G                     F                         G

    t`was light-years of time since his mission did start,

           Am      G              F             Am

    and over a village he halted his craft,

                C                 G            F  GF             G  Am     G- Am

    and it hung in the sky like a star ---- just like a star.



          Am           C                       G              Am

2. He followed a light and came down to a shed,

                    C                 G                      F                       G

    where a mother and child were lying there on a bed,

        Am                G         F                     Am

    a bright light of silver shone round his head,

             C              G             F       GF                  G      Am     G-Am

    and he had the face of an angel ---- and they were afraid.



                    Am         C            G                  Am

3. And the stranger spoke, he said : "Do not fear!"

        C                   G         F                                G

    I come from a planet a long way from here,

         Am             G                 F              Am

    and I bring a message for mankind to hear,

             C                     G           F    GF           G Am    G-Am

    and suddenly the sweetest music ---- filled the air.

           F   G       Am  G  F  Am - C  G  F - G -  Am  G  F Am

    and it went : "Lalalalalalalalalalalallalalalalalalalalalala,

4. This lovely music went trembling through the ground,

              C               G              F                            G

    and many were waken on hearing that sound,

           Am                      G            F                Am

    and travellers on the road, the village they found,

               C                  G             F   GF                      G Am

    by the light of that star in the sky ---- which shone on now.







            Am             C                 G                 Am

5. And just before dawn, at the paling of the sky,

             C            G                          F                    G

   the stranger returned and said :"Now I must fly.

               Am                   G                F                     Am

    When two thousand years of your time have gone by,              

             C              G               F   GF              G   Am     - G-Am

    this song will begin once again ---- to a baby`s cry!"

           F   G        Am  G  F  Am - C  G  F - G -  Am  G  F  Am

    And it went : "Lalalallalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalal

            C               G               F   GF              G    Am    - G - Am

    this song will begin once again ----  to a baby`s cry."

           F   G       Am  G  F  Am - C  G  F - G -  Am  G  F  Am

    And it goes :"Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalallalalalalala

       C                     G            F     GF                G         Am

    peace and goodwill to all men, -----and love for the child.

                     F                  G

    Oh, the whole world is waiting.

    Am  G           F                          Am

    Lalalala..... waiting to hear this song again,

 C                           G                    F

    spacemen are standing on the edge of the world,

      G         Am                  G                      F  Am

    and the star is glowing somewhere in eternity,

              C               G              F    GF             G   Am
