Tone: [C]
[Verse]
It's Christmas [F]time,[G]time, there's no need to [C]be afraid
At Christmas [F]time, we [G]let in light and we [C]banish shade
And in our [F]world of [G]plenty we can [C]spread a smile of [F]joy
Throw your [Dm]arms around the [G]world at Christmas [C]time
[Verse]
But say a [F]prayer,[G]prayer, pray for the [C]other ones
At Christmas [F]time it's [G]hard, but when you're [C]having fun
[Bridge]
There's a [F]world outside your [G]window
And it's a [C]world of dread and [F]fear
Where the [Dm]only water [G]flowing is
The [C]bitter sting of [F]tears
And the [Dm]Christmas bells that [G]ring there
Are the [C]clanging chimes of [F]doom
Well to[Dm]tonight, thank God, it’s [G]them instead of [C]you
[Chorus]
And there [F]won't be snow in [G]Africa this [C]Christmastime
The [F]greatest gift they'll [G]get this year is [C]life (oh-oh-oh)
Oh, where [F]nothing ever [G]grows
No [C]rain or rivers [F]flow
[Dm]Do they know it's [G]Christmastime at[|]at al[C]all? [|] [F] [C] [|]
[Middle8]
[Am]Here's to you
Raise a [G]glass for everyone
[Am]Here's to them
Under[G]Underneath that burning sun
[F]Do they know it's [G5]Christmastime a[[]at [C]al[|]all?
