Key:G
Capo:no capo
[Intro]
G C G D G
[Verse 1]
G D
There's a pine tree in a window in a house on a hill
G
With a tree top angel sitting perfectly still
C
She's watching the shoppers walk through the snow
C G D G
With their arms full of treasures and their hearts all aglow
[Chorus]
C G
We held hands and stared at the lights on the tree
D
As if Christmas was invented just for you and for me
G C
When the angel on the treetop requested a song
C G D G
We sang Silent Night all day long
[Verse 2]
G D
There's a family that's gathering in some living room
G
Dinner on the table that's been cooking since noon
C
The stockings on the mantle are hanging with care
C G D G
While every body is saying a prayer
[Chorus]
C G
We held hands and stared at the lights on the tree
D
As if Christmas was invented just for you and for me
G C
When the angel on the treetop requested a song
C G D G
We sang Silent Night all day long

C G D G
[Verse 3]
G D
There's a room out there somewhere with a woman in a chair
G
With memories of childhood still lingering there
C
How pretty the paper, the lights and the snow
G D G
How precious those memories of long long ago
[Chorus]
C G
We held hands and stared at the lights on the tree
D
As if Christmas was invented just for you and for me
G C
When the angel on the treetop requested a song
C G D G
We sang Silent Night all day long
[Outro]
C G
When the angel on the treetop requested a song

We sang Silent Night all day long

There's a pine tree in a window in a house on a hill
With a tree top angel sitting perfectly still
She's watching the shoppers walk through the snow
With their arms full of treasures and hearts all aglow
We held hands and stared at the lights on the tree
As if Christmas was invented for you and for me
When the angel on the treetop requested a song
We sang, "Silent night all day long"

While every body is saying a prayer

With memories of childhood still lingering there
How pretty the paper, the lights and the snow
How precious those memories of long long ago
We held hands and stared at the lights on the tree
As if Christmas was invented for you and for me
When the angel on the treetop requested a song
We sang, "Silent night all day long"
When the angel on the treetop requested a song
We sang, "Silent Night all day long"
