--------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Intro] G/D | D A13 | D | [Verse 1]
  D              G
O little town of Bethlehem

    D        A7       D
How still we see thee lie

 D        B7       Em7
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep

    D      A7       D
The silent stars go by

    D      Em           F#
Yet in thy dark streets shine

    Bm  Em/G    F#
The everlasting light

    D                  G
The hopes and fears of all the years

    D      A7     D
Are met in thee tonight
[Verse 2]
    D                 G
For Christ is born of Mary

    D        A7   D
And gathered all above

      D       B7        Em7
While mortals sleep the angels keep

      D        A7        D
Their watch of wondering love

  D       Em      F#
O morning stars together

   Bm        Em/G F#
Proclaim thy holy birth

    D               G
And praises sing to God the king

    D        A7     D
And peace to men on earth
[Verse 3]
  D              G
O little town of Bethlehem

    D        A7       D
How still we see thee lie

 D        B7       Em7
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep

    D      A7       D
The silent stars go by

    D      Em           F#
Yet in thy dark streets shine

    Bm  Em/G    F#
The everlasting light

    D                  G
The hopes and fears of all the years

    D      A7     D
Are met in thee tonight
