It's [F] Christmas time, [G] [A] there's no [C] need to be afraid.
At [F] Christmas [A] time, [G] we let in fun [C] and we banish [G] shade.
[C] [D] In [F] our [A] world [G] of plenty, we [C] can spread [G] a smile [F] of joy.
Hold [Dm] your arms around [G] the world at Christmas [C]
time.
But [F] say a prayer, [G] pray [C] for the other ones.
At [F] Christmas time, [G] it's hard but when [C] you're having fun.
There's [F] a world outside [G] your window, and [C] it's a world of dread [F] and fear.
[Dm] Where the only water [G] flow is [C] the bittersweet [F] of tears.
[Dm] And the Christmas bells [G] that ring there, [C] are the clanging chimes [F] that do.
[Dm] Well tonight, thank God [G] it's them, instead [C]
of you.
[F] And there won't be snow [G] in Africa [C] this Christmas time.
[F] The greatest gift [G] they'll get this year [C] is love.
Oh, [F] when nothing ever [G] grows, [C] nor let our rivers [F] flow.
[Dm]
Do they know [G] it's Christmas time [C] at all?
[F] [C] [Am]
Here's to you, [G] raise a glass for everyone.
