[Verse]
G     D            C
I was young when I heard
G            D                 C
I opened the Book and read the words
G            D              C
Stories of a star up in the sky
          D             Em
A far off place, a baby child
     D         C
Born to be the light.

[Pre-chorus]
        D
And the wise men came,
Em      D           C         D
And the angels sang Hallelujah

[Chorus]
C          G
'Cause far away
D  Em            C
Is born a little child
    G    D   Em             C
Far away  The Savior of mankind
              G                  D
The Prince of Peace, the King of Kings
         Em          C
Born in a manger far away...
D
seems a little closer today.

[Verse]
G            D               C
And When I'm old, I'm hoping to
G          D                C
Sit by the tree in my livingroom
G                 D              Em
Tell stories of a star up in the sky
Em        D              C
A far off place, A baby child

[Pre-Chorus]
             D         Em
And like the wise men, I...
Em       G      D
Will ask..what can I bring
C        D           C           D
When the Angels sing  Hallelujah,

[Chorus]
C          G
'Cause far away
D  Em            C
Is born a little child
    G    D   Em             C
Far away  The Savior of mankind
              G                  D
The Prince of Peace, the King of Kings
         Em          C
Born in a manger far away...
D
seems a little closer today.

Come a little closer,
C
Far Away...

Seems a little closer today.
