(Repeat x2) 

Verse 1 : 
G      D       A      Em         G    D         A 
Empty manger, perfect stranger, about to be born 
G           D  A   Em         G   D       A 
Into darkness, sadness, desperate madness, creation so torn 
 G   D     A       Em           G       D          A 
We were so lost on earth, no peace, no worth, no way to escape 
G       D        A         Em  G       D 
In fear, no faith, no hope, no grace, and no light

Verse 2 : 
G             D       A         Em        G     D      A 
Warm hay, cold sweat, a mother, not yet, praying Godspeed the dawn 
G    D      A     Em           G         D        A 
She looks to  her man, holding her hand, they wonder how long 
      G        D   A  Em          G        D          A 
And the  shepherds, wise men  come to  find them, and bow to a king 
G         D         A      Em         G      D       Asus4         G          D  A  Em 
One star above shining  on love, so bright it lit up the night before Christmas 

Chorus 1 : 
   G     D  A      G       D             Asus4 
And the world didn’t know mercy was meek and so mild 
    G    D  A       G    D       A 
And the world didn’t know that truth was as pure as a child 
       G          D  A 
The night before Christmas 
       Em       G          D  A 
The night before Christmas

And the world didn’t know, redemption was sweet and so strong 
  G      D  A   G          D   A 
And the world didn’t know salvation was writing a song 
       G          D  A 
The night before Christmas 
        Em       G          D  A

The night before Christmas
