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.

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

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.
