1.        It's Christmas time, there's no need to be afraid.
                  F                            C
    At Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shade.
                Dm         G              C               F
    And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy,
                Dm               G                  C
    throw your arms around the world at Christmas time.
               F     G                C
2. But say a prayer,    pray for the other ones,
                  F         G                      C
    at Christmas time it's hard, but when you're having fun.
               F                  G
    There's a world outside your window,
                C                  F
    and it's a world of dread and fear,
               Dm           G             C               F
    where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears.
               Dm                  G
    And the Christmas bells that ring there
              C                 F
    are the clanging chimes of doom.
             Dm                       G              C
    Well, tonight, thank God, it's them instead of you.
              F                G             C
3. And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time.
          F                    G                C      C7
    The greatest gift they'll get this year is life. (Oooh)
           F             G        C                F
    Where nothing ever grows, no rain nor rivers flow,
     Dm                  G               C - F - C
