|F |G |C |
It's Christmastime, there's no need to be afraid
|F |G |C |
At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade
|F |G |C |F
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
|Dm |G |C |
Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime
|F |G |C |
But say a prayer, Pray for the other ones
|F |G |C |
At Christmastime it's hard, but when you're having fun
|F |G
There's a world outside your window
|C |F
And it's a world of dread and fear
|Dm |G
Where the only water flowing
|C |F
Is the bitter sting of tears
|Dm |G
And the Christmas bells that ring there
|C |F
Are the clanging chimes of doom
|Dm |G |C |
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you
|F |G |C |
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime
|F |G |C |
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life, Ohhhh
|F |G
Where nothing ever grows
|C |F
No rain nor rivers flow
|Dm |G |C |F C
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?
|Am
Here's to you
|G
Raise a glass for everyone
|Am
Spare a thought this yuletide for the deprived
|G
If the table was turned would you survive
|Am
Here's to them
|G
Underneath that burning sun
|Am
You ain't gotta feel guilt just selfless
|G
Give a little help to the helpless
|F |G
Do they know it's Christmastime at
|C |Em C Em C |C |Em C Em C
