Intro: A D A
Verse 1:
Do you [D]find it hard to sleep tonight,
[A]Resting by the Christmas lights?
[D]Could there be something you forgot[A]?
[D]Beyond the bows and mistletoe,
The [A]tree with presents wrapped below,
There's [D]more to this than you had ever thought[A].
[G]Have we lost the reason that we [E]celebrate each year?
Chorus:
What is [A]Christmas,[E]
If there [D]never was a Savior [Bm]wrapped in a manger?
[F#m]What is [E]Christmas without [D]Christ?
[D] [A]
Verse 2:
[D]Remember how the story goes:
God's [A]gift was wrapped in swaddling clothes,
[D]Beneath the star, one great and holy night[A].
The [D]shepherds heard the angels sing.
The [A]wise men brought an offering.
[D]Peace on Earth began in Bethlehem[A].
[G]Have we lost the reason that we [E]celebrate each year?
Chorus:
What is [A]Christma[E]s,
If there [D]never was a Savior [Bm]wrapped in a manger?
[F#m]What is [E]Christmas,
If the [D]angels never sang, "[Bm]Glory to the newborn [F#m]King?"
What is [A]Christmas without [D]Christ[E]?
Bridge:
There'd be no
"[F#m]Glo-[D]o-[A]o-[E]oria,
[A]In excelsis [D]de[E]o.
[F#m]Glo-[D]o-[A]o-[E]oria,
[F#m]In excelsis [D]de-[E]e-[A]o."
Chorus:
What is [A]Christmas?
If there [D]never was a Savior [Bm]wrapped in a manger.
[F#m]What is [E]Christmas without [D]Christ?
Final Chorus:
[A]
This is [E]Christmas!
It's [D]all about a Savior [Bm]wrapped in a manger.
[F#m]This is [G#]Christmas,
[D]Because of [Bm]Jesus [F#m]Chri-[D]ist[F#m].[E]
This is [A]Christmas,[E]
Because of [F#m]Chris[G#]t,
Because of [A]Christ.
