This is sort of like a new age Christmas Carol. It was originally played by Boney M, but this version is a little different. G C Am Long time ago in Bethlehem, D7 G so the holy Bible say, G C Am Mary's boy child Jesus Christ G D7 G was born on Christmas day. Chorus: G C D B7 Em A D Hark, now hear the angels sing, the new king born today. G C Am G D7 G And we shall live for evermore because of Christmas day! G C Am While shepards watched their flocks by night, D7 G They saw a bright new shining star. G C Am And then they heard a choir sing, G D7 G the music seemed to come from afar Chorus: G C D B7 Em A D Hark, now hear the angels sing, the new king born today. G C Am G D7 G And we shall live for evermore because of Christmas day! G C Am Then by and by in Bethlehem, D7 G In a stable all forlorn. G C Am In a manger cold and dark, G D7 G Mary's little boy child was born. Chorus: G C D B7 Em A D Hark, now hear the angels sing, the new king born today. G C Am G D7 G And we shall live for evermore because of Christmas day! G C Am G D7 G And we shall live for evermore because of Christmas day! Note: An effective ending would be to ritard(drastically slow down) on the last "because of Christmas day" Good Luck and Happy Holidays
