C5

[Verse]
C5             F5    G5                     C5
It's Christmas time,    and there's no need to be afraid
             F5       G5               C5
At Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shade
           F5            G5        C5                F5
And in our world of plen-ty we can spread a smile of joy
      Dm                   G5                 C5
Throw your arms around the world at Christmas time
          F5      G5
But say a prayer
             C5
Pray for the other ones
             F5        G5
At Christmas time it's hard
                C5
But when you're having fun
          F5                 G5
There's a world outside your window
           C5                 F5
And it's a world of dread and fear
          Dm            G5
Where the only water flowing is
    C5                 F5
The bitter sting of tears
        Dm                       G5
And the Christmas bells that ring there
        C5                 F5
Are the clanging chimes of doom
        Dm                         G            C
Well, tonight thank God it's them    instead of you!
          F                 G                C
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time
    F                     G                C    C7  C
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
      F            G         C              F
Where nothing ever grows, no rain or rivers flow
Dm                G                 C      F    C
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

[Pre-Chorus]
Am                     G
Here's to you, raise a glass for everyone
Am                      G
   Here's to them, underneath that burning sun
F                    G
   Do they know it's Christmas time?

[Chorus]
C        F    C
Feed the wo - rld
Dm                 G
Let them know it's Christmas time
C        F    C
Feed the wo - rld
Dm                 G
Let them know it's Christmas time
C        F    C
Feed the wo - rld
Dm                 G               C
Let them know it's Christmas time again
