[Intro]
G Am7 D Gsus4 G
[Verse 1]
G Take me back to eight years old Am7 The little church on a dead-end road D With a candle flicker in one hand C G And Dad’s hand in the other G Take me back to Silent Night Am7 My heart was full and the world was right D ‘Cause right now the world looks nothing like C G Those innocent Decembers
[Pre-Chorus]
Am7 D These days peace on earth is hard to find G C And I need you to remind me one more time
[Chorus]
G Am7 You’re still the hope of Christmas D Gsus4 G/F# You’re still the light when the world looks dark Em Am7 You’re still the hope of Christmas D G And You’re still the hope of my heart
[Interlude]
Am7 D Gsus4 G
[Verse 2]
G Watch the snowflakes falling down Am7 Like a blanket on this town D For a moment we can hardly see C G The pain this year has brought us G May the sick find healing’s touch Am7 May hatred’s fight be won with love D And may every heart make room for You, C G The One who came to save us
[Chorus]
G Am7 Cause You’re still the hope of Christmas D Gsus4 G/F# You’re still the light when the world looks dark Em Am7 You’re still the hope of Christmas D G And You’re still the hope of my heart
[Interlude]
Am7 D Gsus4 G/F# Em Am7 D G You're the hope of Christmas!
[Verse 3]
G I bowed my head to pray tonight Am7 Felt my little girl by my side D She slipped her tiny hand in mine C G And we both talked to You G And it took me back to eight years old Am7 My daddy’s hand and a story told D About Heaven’s love in a manger low C G And a promise that’s still true
[Chorus]
G Am7 You’re still the hope of Christmas D Gsus4 G/F# You’re still the light when the world looks dark Em Am7 You’re still the hope of Christmas D G And You’re still the hope of my heart G Am7 You’re still the hope of Christmas D Gsus4 G/F# You’re still the light when the world looks dark Em Am7 N.C. You’re still the hope of Christmas D G And You’re still the hope of my heart
