       Am            C                 G        Am
1. A spaceman came travelling in his ship from afar,
           C              G              F                 G
    t'was light-years of time since his mission did start,
         Am      G          F          Am
    and over a village he halted his craft,
            C           G           F  GF          G  Am  G Am
    and it hung in the sky like a star ---- just like a star.
       Am          C              G         Am
2. He followed a light and came down to a shed,
             C           G                F         G
    where a mother and child were lying there on a bed,
        Am             G       F              Am
    a bright light of silver shone round his head,
         C          G          F     GF       G    Am    G Am
    and he had the face of an angel ---- and they were afraid.


              Am       C        G              Am
3. And the stranger spoke, he said : "Do not fear!"
       C            G       F                  G
    I come from a planet a long way from here,
        Am          G           F          Am
    and I bring a message for mankind to hear,
         C              G      F    G F     G     Am  GAm
    and suddenly the sweetest music ---- filled the air.
         F  G      Am  G  F  Am - C  G  F - G -  Am  G  F  Am
    and it went : "Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala,
      C            G           F   G F        G    A       G Am
    peace and goodwill to all men, ---- and love for the child.

   And it went :" Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala."
         Am      C           G                     Am
4. This lovely music went trembling through the ground,
         C         G        F            G
    and many were waken on hearing that sound,
          Am                G         F            Am
    and travellers on the road, the village they found,
            C              G          F   G F          G       Am
    by the light of that star in the sky ---- which shone on now.
        Am           C            G             Am
5. And just before dawn, at the paling of the sky,
          C        G                 F             G
   the stranger returned and said :"Now I must fly.
          Am            G             F             Am
    When two thousand years of your time have gone by,                
          C           G         F   GF         G Am   G Am
    this song will begin once again ---- to a baby's cry!"

    And it went : "Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala

    And it goes :"Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala
      C            G           F    GF            G        Am
    peace and goodwill to all men, -----and love for the child.

    Oh, the whole world is waiting.
     Am   G         F                    Am 
    Lalalala..... waiting to hear this song again,
 C                 G             F
    spacemen are standing on the edge of the world,
     G        Am              G             F   Am
    and the star is glowing somewhere in eternity,
          C           G         F    GF          G    Am
    This song will begin once again ---- to a baby's cry."
