A Christmas Song

D              G
Christmas time
        A       D                G
in the busyness around that time,
            A             D
I could not lift my head enough to 
see
    G         A      D        G A
the face that I wanted to see.
D                 G
Through the door
           A       D               G
where the packages lie on the floor,
     A                 D
evergreen and incense in the air,
      G      A      D           G A
there was a year i didn't care.

Continues after the ad
[Chorus]
     Em                      A
With my voice I sang this before,
                  D                
that grace would come and sorrow be
    Bm
 no more
 Em                            A
With my ears I've heard this before,
                 D                 
that grace would come and sorrow be
    Bm
 no more.
         Em                 A
With my knees I bend to the floor.


[Solo]

[Verse 2]
D         G
Christmas day,
          A              D        
in the stillness that protects 
       G
this day,
              A                   
the string of lights was strung 
D         G
into a tree,
             A                    
a string of lights was strung inside
D
 of me,
   G      A        D
I felt at peace and fell asleep.
  G      A
I felt at peace
     D
and slept.
