"Nothing But A Child" *LYRICS* Chords

_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] Once upon a time, _ [G] in a far [A] off land,
_ [G] Wise men saw [A] a sign _ [G] and set [A] out across [D] the [G] sand.
_ [D] Songs [C] of [D] praise to sing, [G] they traveled day [A] and night.
_ [G] _
Precious gifts to [A] bring, they were [G] guided [A] by [D] the _ [G] light.
[D] _ _
[G] _ [D] They chased a brand new start, _ [G] ever towards [A] the west.
_ [G] Across the mountains [A] far, _ _ [G] but when [A] it came [D] to rest,
They scarce [G] believed [D] their _ eyes, [G] it'd come so many [A] _
miles.
[Em] The [Bm] [G] miracle [A] they prized [G] was nothing [A] but [D] a child.
_ [G] Nothing [D] but [G] a child _ [D] could wash [A] those tears [Bm] away,
_ [G] Or guide a weary [A] _
world [G] into the [A] light [D] of day.
_ [G] Nothing [D] but [G] a child [D] could help [F#m] erase those [Bm] _ _
miles,
[G] So once again we [A] all can [G] be children [A] for [D] a while.
[E] _ _ [D] Now [E] _ _ [D] _ _
[E] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ all around the world, [G] in every [Em] little [A] _ town,
_ [G] _
Every day [A] is heard _ [G] a precious [A] little [D] sound.
[E] _ [D] And every [E] [D] mother kind, _ [G] and every father [A] _ proud,
[G] Looks down at all to [A] find _ _ [G] another [A] chance [D] allowed.
_ _ [G] Nothing [D] but [G] a child _ [Em] _ [D] could wash [F#m] those tears [Bm] away,
_ _ [G] Or guide a weary [A] world _ [G] into [A] the light [D] of day.
_ [G] Nothing [D] but a [G] child [Em] _ [D] could wash [A] those tears [Bm] away,
_ _ [G] Or guide a weary [A] _ world [G] into [A] the light [D] of day.
_ [G] Nothing [D] but [Em] a child _ [D] could help [A] erase [Bm] those miles,
So [Em] once again we [A] all can [G] be children [C#m] for a [D] while.
[G] _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ [G] Nothing but [A] a little baby, [G] nothing but [A] a little baby,
[G] Nothing _ [A] but _ a [D] [E] child.
