INTRO:
Dm    Bb    F    C

VERSE 1:
       Dm                        Bb
Did it feel like a night any different
         Dm               Bb 
Then at least a million before 
     Dm                 Bb
Was there any rare expectation
                Dm                        Bb  
Like there was some kind of something in store
        Gm         Bb/F            Eb2 
Did the sky have to hold back the thunder 
        Gm             Dm/F       Eb
Did the moon find new reasons to glow
           Dm         F/C            Bb2  
Could the children somehow sense the wonder
    Dm         C       Dm   -   Bb   -   C
Two thousand Decembers ago 

VERSE 2:
          Dm                     Bb
Were the sheep as amazed as the shepherds
       Dm                       Bb 
At the new star that lit up the sky
         Dm                     Bb 
Did the willow trees whisper excitement
         Dm                       Bb 
To the rivers and streams passing by
        Gm      Bb/F          Eb2 
Did the joy ricochet off the mountains 
         Gm            Dm/F     Eb
'Til it filled up the valleys below
    Dm             F/C         Bb2 
Did all the world sense love abounding
     Dm         C       Dm   -   Bb   -   C
Two thousand Decembers ago 

CHORUS:
    F               G     
Was anyone able to look at the stable 
    Am         G           F
And not see a child but a King
                          G 
I wish I could hear back over the years
   Am7        G     F                 G 
As heaven & nature sing, heaven and nature sing. 

VERSE 3:
Did the walls of the barn start to tremble 
With a glory they could not contain 
Did anyone wake with the feeling 
Of peace that they could not explain 
Oh the love must have been overwhelming 
As it warmed everyone in its flow 
For all of the earth is still telling 
Of two thousand Decembers ago 

Was anyone able to look at the stable 
And not see a child but a king 
I wish I could hear back over the years 
As heaven and nature sing, heaven and nature sing 
Oh the love must have been overwhelming 
Two thousand Decembers ago
