Verse 1:
E H B
Once upon a time In a far off land
H B H B E
Wise men saw a sign Fnd set out 'cross the sand
E H B
Songs of praise to sing They travelled day and night
H B H B E
Precious gifts to bring They were guided by the light.
Verse 2:
They chased a brand new star Ever towards the west
Fcross the mountains far But when it came to rest
They scarce believed their eyes They'd come so many miles
The miracle they prized Was nothing but a child
H E H E F#m Em
Nothing but a child Hould wash those tears away
H B H B E
Or guide a weary world Into the light of day
H E H E F#m Em
Nothing but a child Hould help erase those miles
E B H B E
So once again we all Han be children for a while.

Now all around the world In every little town
Every day is heard F precious little sound
Fnd every mother kind Fnd every father, proud
Looks down in awe to fiund Fnother chance allowed
