VERSE:

6  -6   -6   -6      6    5     -5 5 -4 5   -5 5
A spaceman came travelling on his ship from afar
 7      7     -8   7     -7    -6     6   -6  -6  -6   -6
Twas lightyears of time since his mission did start
 7   7 -8  7  -7 (-6) 6    6   -6   6   -5     5
And over  a  vi-ill-age, he halted his craft
 5   5    5   -5   5   -4    5   -4 -4  4
And it hung in the sky like a sta-ar
  4     4   -4   5
Just like a star

He followed a light and came down to a shed
Where a mother and child were lying there on a bed
A bright light of silver shone round his head
And he had the face of an angel

And they were afraid

Then the stranger spoke, he said do not fear
I come from a planet a long way from here
And I bring a message for mankind to hear
And suddenly the sweetest music

Filled the air
 

  -6  -6   -7    

And it went...


CHORUS:
7   -8    7  -7  -6    6  -6  -6   6  -6
La   la  la   la   la   la  la   la   la   la
7  -8   7  -7  -6   6 -6
La  la  la  la  la  la  la
7   -8   7  -7  -6   6  -6  -6   6  -6
La  la  la   la  la  la  la   la   la   la
  5     -5      5   -4  -4  5 -4  4  4 

Peace and goodwill to a-a-all men  
  -6   7   -8  (-8)  8
And love for th’child
