Do They Know Its Christmas

C              F     G
It's Christmas time
                   C
There's no need to be afraid
             F     G
At Christmas time
                       C
We let in light and we banish shade
(Boy George)
           F         G
And in our world of plenty
       C                 F
We can spread a smile of joy
                           G
Throw your arms around the world
             C
At Christmas time

(George Michael)
          F      G
But say a prayer
             C
Pray for the other ones
             F         G
At Christmas time it's hard
(Simon LeBon)
                C
But when you're having fun
          F                  G
There's a world outside your window

(Sting)
           C                  F
And it's a world of dread and fear
                     G
Where the only water flowing is
(Bono joins in)
    C               F
The bitter sting of tears
                                 G
And the Christmas bells that are ringing
    C                  F
Are clanging chimes of doom
                                         G               C
(Bono only) Well, tonight thank God it's them instead of you.


(Everyone)
          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
Where nothing ever grows
   C              F
No rain or rivers flow
                  G                 C
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

raise a glass for everyone
Am
Here's to them
     G
underneath that burning sun
F                 G                 C
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?
