Christmas Bells - John Gorka
Capo 3
| C | G6 | Fmaj7-6 | Am G | F | Am G | F G | Am G | F | Fmaj7 |
C (x32010@1) G6 (320000@1) I heard the bells on Christmas day
Fmaj7-6 Am (x02210@1) GTheir (320003@1)old familiar carols play
F (133211@1) Am (x02210@1) GAnd (320003@1)wild and sweet, the words repeat
F (133211@1) G (320003@1) Am (x02210@1) GOf (320003@1)peace on earth, good will to men
F (133211@1) G (320003@1) CPeace (x32010@1)on earth, good will to men
C (x32010@1) G6I (320000@1)thought how, as the day had come
Fmaj7-6 Am (x02210@1) GThe (320003@1)belfries of all Christendom
F (133211@1) Am (x02210@1) GHad (320003@1)rolled along the unbroken song
F (133211@1) G (320003@1) Am (x02210@1) GOf (320003@1)peace on earth, good will to men
F (133211@1) G (320003@1) CPeace (x32010@1)on earth, good will to men
Fmaj7-6 Am (x02210@1) G (320003@1) And in despair, I bowed my head
F (133211@1) Am (x02210@1) G (320003@1) "There is no peace on earth," I said
F (133211@1) Am (x02210@1) G (320003@1) For hate is strong, and mocks the song
F (133211@1) G (320003@1) Am (x02210@1) G (320003@1) Of peace on earth, good will to men
F (133211@1) G (320003@1) C (x32010@1) Peace on earth, good will to men
| C | G6 | Fmaj7-6 | Am G | F | Am G | F G | Am G | F | Fmaj7 |
C (x32010@1) G6Then (320000@1)pealed the bells, more loud and deep
Fmaj7-6 Am (x02210@1) GGod (320003@1)is not dead, nor doth he sleep
F (133211@1) Am (x02210@1) GThe (320003@1)wrong shall fail, the right prevail
F (133211@1) G (320003@1) Am (x02210@1) GWith (320003@1)peace on earth, good will to men
F (133211@1) G (320003@1) CPeace (x32010@1)on earth, good will to men
C (x32010@1) G6I (320000@1)heard the bells on Christmas day
Fmaj7-6 Am (x02210@1) GTheir (320003@1)old familiar carols play
F (133211@1) Am (x02210@1) G (320003@1) Wild and sweet, the words repeat
