Intro:
GCAmDVerse 1:
GC
I've made this same mistake before
AmG
too many malls, too many stores.
C
December traffic, Christmas rush
AmCG
it breaks me till I push and shove.
GDCG
Children are crying while mothers are trying
AmD
to photograph Santa and sleigh.
GDCGC
Shopping and buying and standing forever in line-
------------
what can I say?
Chorus:
GCDGD
I need a silent night, a holy night
CGAmD
to hear an angel voice through the chaos and the noise.
GCDGD
I need a midnight clear, a little peace right here
CAmDG
to end this crazy day with a silent night.
Verse 2:
GC
December comes then disappears
AmG
faster and faster every year.
C
Did my own mother keep this pace
AmCG
or was the world a different place?
GDCG
Where people stayed home, wishing for snow
AmD
watching three channels on their TVs.
GDCG
Look at us now, rushing around
CD
trying to buy Christmas peace.
Chorus:
GCDGD
I need a silent night, a holy night
CGAmD
to hear an angel voice through the chaos and the noise.
GCDGD
I need a midnight clear, a little peace right here
CAmDG
to end this crazy day with a silent night.
Bridge:
AmGCD
What was it like back there in Bethlehem?
AmEm
With peace on earth
AmC
Good will toward men
Chorus:
GCDGD
I need a silent night, a holy night
CGAmD
to hear an angel voice through the chaos and the noise.
GCDGD
I need a midnight clear, a little peace right here
CAmDG
to end this crazy day with a silent night.
CAmDG
To end this crazy day with a silent night.
