Three-four time [Intro] C F C G C [Chorus 1]
C                 F
If it only took a baby

          C             G
Why can’t people here believe

      C7          F
If it only took a baby

     C           G         C
Lullabies should ring with peace
[Verse 1]
      F            C
Quite cold darkest night

   Am                G
No king would dare arrive

          C              F
Tired and worn shepherds came

        C     G      C
We will never be the same
[Chorus 2]
      C           F
If it only took a baby

         C                  G
Peace on earth must soon be here

      C           F
If it only took a baby

        C        G7     C
Joy and gladness will appear

       F             C
In His eyes His tiny hands

         Am            G
Hold the future of our land

           C            F
His manger bed His holy face

         C        G      C
Looks to us with amazing grace
[Chorus 3]
      C           F
If it only took a baby

          C               G7
Now’s the time to clearly see

      C7          F
If it only took a baby

       C          G            C
In our hearts His smile should be
[Chorus 3]
      C           F
If it only took a baby

          C               G7
Now’s the time to clearly see

      C7          F
If it only took a baby

       C          G            C
In our hearts His smile should be
[Outro]

In our hearts His smile should be
