Do they know it`s Christmas chords


    Do they know it`s Christmas




   C ~                           F                                  C

1.        It's Christmas time, there's no need to be afraid.

                           F                                        C

    At Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shade.

                       Dm         G                      C                     F

    And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy,

                       Dm                       G                          C

    throw your arms around the world at Christmas time.



                       F      G                     C

2. But say a prayer,    pray for the other ones,

                           F           G                                C

    at Christmas time it's hard, but when you're having fun.

                       F                           G

    There's a world outside your window,

                      C                           F

    and it's a world of dread and fear,

                     Dm             G                   C                   F

    where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears.

                      Dm                       G

    And the Christmas bells that ring there

                   C                            F

    are the clanging chimes of doom.

                Dm                              G                     C 

    Well, tonight, thank God, it's them instead of you.



                       F                         G                 C

3. And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time.

               F                         G                    C       C7

    The greatest gift they'll get this year is life. (Oooh)

                  F                   G            C                    F

    Where nothing ever grows, no rain nor rivers flow,

    Dm                           G                     C – F – C

    do they know it's Christmas time at all?



      Am                               G         

    (Here's to you) raise a glass for everyone !
