The First Noel

    F       Am     Dm         F
The first Noel the angels did say
       Bb            Am          C              F
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay:
   F           Am        Dm            F
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
     Bb            Am         C      F
On a cold winter's night that was so deep


[Chorus]
 F     C     Dm    F
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
 Bb         Am      Gm   F
Born is the King of Israel


[Instrumental]
F C Dm Am
Bb Am C F


[Verse 2]
    F      Am       Dm         F
And to the earth it gave great light
    Bb        Am         C        F
And so it continued both day and night


[Chorus]
 F     C     Dm    F
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
 Bb         Am      Gm   F
Born is the King of Israel


[Verse 3]
      F        Am           Dm    F
This star drew nigh to the north-west;
      Bb    Am     C         F
O'er Bethlehem it took it's rest
     F    Am            Dm      F
And there it did both stop and stay
      Bb       Am          C     F
Right over the place where Jesus lay


[Chorus]
 F     C     Dm    F
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
 Bb         Am      Gm   F
Born is the King of Israel

 F     C     Dm    F
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
 Bb         Am      Gm   F
Born is the King of Israel
