I Believe in Father Christmas chords
Start Jamming...
Just before I came, began this tour, I went and did some radio interviews.
And every one I did, the first thing they asked me was,
Greg, are you going to play your Christmas song?
Which is very strange, you know, because it was like the beginning of September.
But anyway, whether you like it or not, you're going to get it.
Here it is, I Believe in Father Christmas.

[G] [D] They said [G] there'll be snow [D] at Christmas
[G] And [D] they said there'll be peace on earth
[G] But [D] instead it [G] just kept [D] on raining
[G] A [D] veil of tears [G] for the virgin [D] birth
[C] And [G] I remember [D] one Christmas morning
[C] [G] Winter's light [D] and a distant choir
And the peal [A] of a bell [G] and that Christmas [D] tree smell
And their eyes were the tinsel and fire
[G] [D]

[G] [D] They sold me [G] a [D] dream of Christmas
[G] And [D] they sold me [G] a [D] silent lamb
And they told [G] me a [D] fairy story
[G] Till [D] I believed [G] in the [D] Israelite
[C] And [G] I believed [D] in Father Christmas
[C] And I looked to [G] the sky [D] with excited eyes
And I woke with yawn [G] in the first [D] light of dawn
And I saw him [Am] and threw [D] his disguise

[D] [G] [D]
[G] [D] wish you [G] a hopeful [D] Christmas
[G] [D] And I wish you a great new year
[G] [D] All [G] anguish and [D] sadness
[G] [Bm] Leave your [D] heart and [G] let your Lord [D] be clear
[C] They [G] said there'll [D] be snow at Christmas
[C] [G] They said there'll [D] be peace on earth
Hallelujah, Noel, [G]

A [G] Christmas we get [D] we deserve
Merry
