C                        F
Every year at Christmas, all I can see
C                                 F
Are pictures of the things I want around the tree
Dm                       C
But this year's a little different
F                        Am
I'm not thinking of myself
F
So my prayer for this Christmas
C              G
Is for somebody else
Gsus4 G
So    I pray
C           G
Joy To the World
Am7             F
Peace for every boy and girl
C                 G
Hope when life is hard
Am7          F
Light when everything seems dark
C                               F
God I know you're listening and you can hear
C                                   F
The need of every broken heart and all their tears
Dm             C
I don't have a lot to offer
F              Am
Just this one simple prayer
F
That this Christmas everyone would know
C            G
Somebody cares...
Gsus4 G
So I pray
C          G
Joy to the world
Am7              F
Peace for every boy and girl
C                 G
Hope when life is hard
Am7         F
Light when everything seems dark
Dm7               C
I pray that every hungry soul
F               C
Will be fed and will be warm
Dm7         C
That not a single solitary child
F
Would suffer harm
Dm7 C/E
And wars would find their ending
F C/E
As we take another view
Dm7                  C
My hope is that this Christmas prayer
F    Gsus4       G
Would somehow come true
Bb
I pray
F        Bb
Humanity would rise
G        A
And join with me
G          A
And together we'll sing
Woah, woah
D                      A
Joy [To the World] To all the world
Bm7            G
Peace for every boy and girl
D            A
Talking ‘bout hope when life is hard
Bm7                G
Light when everything seems dark
Em7           D
I pray that every hungry soul
G          D
Will be fed and will be warm
Em7             D
That not a single solitary child
G         Bm7
Would suffer harm
Em7                  D
And Lord, we find their ending
G             D
As we take another view
Em7                         D
So now my hope is that this Christmas prayer
G              A
Would somehow come true
D          A
Joy To the World
Bb                      G
Peace for every boy and girl
