G D7 G C
At Christmas time in the steeple high
G D7 G
The bells would proudly ring
C G
To tell the world of the joy and cheer
A7 D7
That Christmas day would bring
C G
But one little bell in the steeple high
D7 G
Could only pain alone and cry
C G C
No matter how he’d try and try
G D7 G
Poor little thing he couldn't ring at all
D7 G C
All the other bells in the steeple high
G D7 G
Saw all his lonely tears
C G
And watched him try his best to ring
A7 D7
Each Christmas through the years
C G
But the little blue bell in the steeple toll
D7 G
Just pride from Christmas came to call
C G C
For like I said in spite of all
G D7 G
Poor little thing he couldn't ring at all
D7 G C
One Christmas Eve in the steeple high
G D7 G
An angle did appear
C G
She smiled and said to the little blue bell
A7 D7
I've come to dry yours tears
C G
And on that night so the story's told
D7 G
She changed the little blue bell to the purest gold
C G C
With the richest tone to hold and hold
G D7 G
Proud little thing just hear him r-ing
