F                     C/G
 Their old familiar carols play
E7                              Am
  And mild and sweet their songs  repeat

 Of peace on earth good will to men
E7
  And the bells are ringin'

 And in despair I bowed my head

 There is no peace on earth I said
E7                                 Am
  For hate is strong and mocks the song

 Of peace on earth, good will to men
E7
  But the bells are ringin'

 The world revolved from night to day
E7                         Am
  A voice, a chime, a chant  sublime
F                                C
 Of peace on earth, good will to men_
E7
