G Cmaj7 D/F# Once upon a time In a far off land C D/F# C D/F# G Wise men saw a sign And set out 'cross the sand G Cmaj7 D/F# Songs of praise to sing They travelled day and night C D/F# C D/F# G Precious gifts to bring Guided by the light.
Verse 2:
G Cmaj7 D/F# They chased a brand new star Ever towards the west C D/F# C D/F# G Across the mountains far But when it came to rest G Cmaj7 D/F# They scarce believed their eyes They'd come so many miles C D/F# C D/F# G The miracle they prized Was nothing but a child

C G C G G/F# Em7 Nothing but a child Could wash those tears away C D/F# C D/F# G Or guide a weary world Into the light of day C G C G G/F# Em7 Nothing but a child Could help erase those miles C D/F# C D/F# G So once again we all Can be children for a while.

G Cmaj7 D/F# Now all around the world In every little town C D/F# C D/F# G Every day is heard A precious little sound G Cmaj7 D/F# And every mother kind And every father, proud C D/F# C D/F# G Looks down in awe to find Another chance allowed
Chorus:
C G C G G/F# Em7 Nothing but a child Could wash those tears away C D/F# C D/F# G Or guide a weary world Into the light of day C G C G G/F# Em7 Nothing but a child Could help erase those miles C D/F# C D/F# G So once again we all Can be children for a while.
