[Dm] [C] [Bb] [Dm]
[F] [C] [Bb]
[C] [Dm]
A spaceman [F] came traveling [C] on a ship [Dm] from afar
[F] Towards light years [C] of time since [Bb] his mission did [C] start
[Dm] And over a [Am] village [Bb] he halted [Dm] his craft
[F] And he'd hung [C] in the sky [Bb] like a star
Just [D] like [Dm] a star
He followed [F] a light and [C] came down to [Dm] a shed
[F] Where a mother [C] and child were [Bb] lying there on a [C] bed
[Dm] A bright light of [Am] [Bb] silver shone around [Dm] his head
[F] And he had [C] the face [Bb] of an angel
And [C] they [Dm] were afraid
And the stranger [F] spoke, [C] he said, [Dm] do not fear
[F] I come from a [C] planet [Bb] a long way from [C] here
[Dm] And I bring [Am] a message [Bb] for mankind [Dm] to hear
[F] And suddenly [C] the sweetest [Bb] music filled [C] [Dm] the air
[Bb] And [C] it [Dm] went la [Am]-la-la-la [Bb]-la-la [Dm] [F] la [C]

This lovely [F]
music [C] when trembling [Dm] through the ground
[F] And many [C] will waken [Bb] on hearing that [C] sound
[Dm] And travellers [Am] on the road, [Bb] the village they [Dm] found
[F] By the [C] light of that ship [Bb] in the sky
That's [Am] shown [Dm] all around
And just before dawn, [F] at [C] the paling [Dm] of the sky
[F] The stranger [C] returned [Bb] and said, now I [C] must fly
[Dm] When two [Am] thousand years [Bb] of your time [Dm] has gone by
[F] This song will [C] begin [Bb] once again
For [C] ladies [Dm] cry
And [Bb] [C] it [Dm] went la [Am] la la la [Bb] la la [Dm] la la [F] la
