[Verse 1]

Em                D      Em
We three kings of Orient are
Em               D         Em
Bearing gifts we travel so far
Em        D         G
Field and fountain, moor and 
mountain
Am        B7     Em     D
Following yonder star

   G               C       G
Oh star of wonder, star of night
G               C      G
Star with royal beauty bright
Em       D       C     D
Westward leading still proceeding
G                C       G       Em
Guide us to that perfect light

Em             D           Em
Born a king on Bethlehem's plain
Em                D         Em
Gifts we bring to crown him again
Em      D     G
King forever, ceasing never
Am      B7     Em      D
Over us all to reign

Oh star of wonder, star of night
G               C      G
Star with royal beauty bright
Em       D       C     D
Westward leading still proceeding

Guide us to that perfect light
