C

C              F      G                     C
It's Christmas time there's no need to be afraid
              F       G                   C
At Christmas time we let in light and we banish shade
            F       G             C               F
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
F                          G                   C
Throw your arms around the world at Christmas time
          F         G                C
But say a prayer pray for the others ones
             F         G                        C
At Christmas time it's hard but when your having fun
           F                 G                   C                 F
There's a world outside your window and it's a world of dread and fear
                     G              C               F
Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears
                              G               C                 Am
And the Christmas bells that ring out are the clanging chimes of doom
      Dm7                 G                C
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you!!

CHORUS:
          F         G                  C
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time
    F                     G                C
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
F                  G          C             F
Where nothing ever grows, no rain or rivers flow
Dm7               G                 C
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

Am            Em
Here's to you raise a glass for everyone
Am             Em
Here's to them underneath that burning sun
Dm7              F                 C
Do they know its Christmas time at all?
C        F   C      F             G     C
Feed the world let them know it's X-mas time.
