On A Christmas Day

(início)

A        E        F#m
Walking along the sidewalk
Hiding behind  a  corner
While I tried  to  answer
     A             E            F#m
    Watching the children      play
A   boy  turned  around   to    say:
The boy      disappeared in the night
 D  (E)   A
 I  have seen
"I  have seen
 On my    own
            E          F#m            D       A
Smiling    faces      waiting for christmas day
a thousand people    crying on a  christmas day"
I   was    left there wondering if  he was  right
                                   (E F#m E A E F#m E)
A        E      F#m    E
And I began to think about it
A      E             F#m      E
Was it ever meant to be that way
  A          E               F#m            E
"Love is the answer" said a voice in the crowd and
A           H        E
I saw that boy run away
C#m    H          A          H      C#m
"Why don't you stay? Where did you hide?
            H
Will I see you again?
C#m   H          E
Why don't you stay?"
A          E          F#m
And as I stood there alone
  A        E      F#m
Staring into the night
E       A               E          F#m E         A (E F#m)
I have seen a thousand people searching for the light
A           E        F#m
If you are lost and lonely
A           E     F#m
If you're alone today
 E         A
Find that boy
     E        F#m
And let him show you
             A     E                F#m       E
And he will care about you when the night is long
         A         E              F#m    E
He will make you smile again and sing along
       A        E        F#m      D
Let's join our hands and let us pray
     A         E       A
For love on christmas day
       A        E         F#m      D
Let's join our hands and let us pray
     A         E       A
For love on christmas day
