[G] [C] [C] [G] [D] [G]
[G] There's a pine tree in a window in a house on a [D] hill
With a tree top angel sitting perfectly [G] still
She's watching the shoppers [G7] walk through the [C] snow
With their arms full of [G] treasures and [D] hearts all aglow
{soh} Chorus:{eoh}
{soc} We held [C] hands and stared at the lights on the [G] tree
As if Christmas was invented for you and for [D] me
When the [G] Angel on the treetop re-[G7]quested a [C] song
We sang silent [G] night [D] all day [G] long{eoc}
[G] There's a family that's gathering in some living [D] room
Dinner on the table that's been cooking since [G] noon
The stockings on the mantle are [G7] hanging with [C] care
While every-[G]body is [D] saying their prayers
{soh} Chorus:{eoh}
{soc} We held [C] hands and stared at the lights on the [G] tree
As if Christmas was invented for you and for [D] me
When the [G] Angel on the treetop re-[G7]quested a [C] song
We sang silent [G] night [D] all day [G] long{eoc}
[G] [C] [C] [G][D][G]
[G] There's a room out there somewhere with a woman in a [D] chair
With memories of childhood still lingering [G] there
How pretty the paper, the [G7] lights and the [C] snow
How precious those [G] memories of [D] long, long a-[G]go
{soh} Chorus:{eoh}
{soc} We held [C] hands and stared at the lights on the [G] tree
As if Christmas was invented for you and for [D] me
When the [G] Angel on the treetop re-[G7]quested a [C] song
We sang silent [G] night [D] all day [G] long{eoc}
When the [G] Angel on the treetop re-[G7]quested a [C] song
We sang {soh} Tacet: {eoh} {soi} SI-LENT NIGHT {eoi}{soh} Slowing {eoh} [D] all day [G] long
