verse 1

One, two, three, four

Tell me that you love me more

Sleepless long nights

That was what my youth was for

Oh teenage hopes are lying at your door

Left you with nothing but they want some more

Ohohoh

You're changing your heart

Ohohoh

You know who you are

verse 2

Sweetheart bitter heart

Now I can't tell you apart

Cozy and cold

Put the horse before the cart

Those teenage hopes who have tears in their eyes

Too scared to own up to one little lie

How many roads must a man walk down

Before you call him a man?

Yes ’n’ how many seas must a white dove sail,

Before she sleeps in the sand?

Yes ’n’ how many times must the cannonballs fly,

Before they’re forever banned?

The answer my friend is blowin’ in the wind

The answer is blowin’ in the wind.

How many times must a man look up

Before he can see the sky?

Yes ’n’ how many ears must one man have,

Before he can hear people cry?

Yes ’n’ how many deaths will it take till he knows

That too many people have died?

Brown Eyed GirlVan Morrison

Hey, where did we go? Days when the rains came.

Down in the hollow playin' a new game.

Laughing and a- running, hey hey, Skipping and a- jumping.

In the misty morning fog with our hearts a-thumping and you,

My brown-eyed girl.

You, my brown-eyed girl.

Whatever happened to Tuesday and so slow,

Going down the old mine with a transistor radio.

Standing in the sunlight laughing, hiding behind a rainbow's wall

Slipping and a- sliding all along the waterfall with you

My brown-eyed girl.


Do you remember when we used to sing:

Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da

Cast my memory back there, lord; sometimes I'm overcome thinking 'bout

Making love in the green grass behind the stadium with you

My brown-eyed girl.

Lord Almighty

I feel my temperature rising

Higher, higher

It's burning through to my soul

Girl, girl, girl

You've gone and set me on fire

My brain is flaming

I don't know which way to go

Your kisses lift me higher

Like the sweet song of a choir

You light my morning sky

With burning love

Ooh, ooh, ooh,

I feel my temperature rising

Help me, I'm flaming

I must be a hundred and nine

Burning, burning

Burning and nothing can cool me

I just might turn to

Smoke, but I feel fine

verse 1

Well I guess it would be nice, if I could touch your body

I know not everybody has got a body like you.

But I’ve got to think twice before I give my heart away,

And I know all the games you play, because I play them too.

Oh but I need some time off from that emotion

Time to pick my heart up off the floor, oh

When that love comes down with out devotion, oh well it

Takes a strong man baby but I’m showin’ you the door

Because I gotta have faith, I gotta have faith

Because I gotta have faith faith faith, I gotta have faith.

verse 2

Baby, I know you’re asking me to stay

Say please, please, please don’t go away,

You say I’m giving you the blues.

Maybe, huh, you mean every word you say

I can’t help but think of yesterday

And a lover who tied me down to the lover boy rules

Before this river becomes an ocean

Before you throw my heart back on the floor,

Oh, oh baby I’ll reconsider my foolish notion

Well I need someone to hold me but I’ll

Wait for something more...

Because I gotta have faith, I gotta have faith

Because I gotta have faith faith faith, I gotta have faith.

Folsom Prison BluesJohnny Cash

I hear the train a comin’, it's rollin’ round the bend,

And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when.

I'm stuck at Folsom Prison and time keeps dragging on,

But that train keeps rolling on down to San An-tone.

When I was just a baby, my mama told me Son,

Always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns.

But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die.

When I hear that whistle blowin’ I hang my head and cry.

KAZOO VERSE!!!

I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car.

They're probably drinkin’ coffee and smoking big cigars.

But I know I had it coming I know I can't be free,

But those people keep a movin’ and that's what tortures me

Well if they freed me from this prison if that railroad train was mine.

I bet I'd move on over a little farther down the line,

Far from Folsom Prison that's where I want to stay,

And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues a-way.

I heard there was a secret chord,

That David played and it pleased the lord.

But you dont really care for music, do you?

Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth

The minor fall and the major lift

The baffled king composing hallelujah

Hallelujah,

Hallelujah,

Hallelujah,

Hallelu jah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof

You saw her bathing on the roof

Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya

She tied you to a kitchen chair

She broke your throne, and she cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the hallelujah

I used to live alone before I knew ya

I've seen your flag on the marble arch

But love is not a victory march

No, it's a cold and very broken hallelujah


I did my best, but it wasn't much

I couldn't feel so I tried to touch

I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya

And even though it all went wrong

I'll stand before the Lord of Song

With nothing on my tongue but hallelujah

So if you wanna have fun come a-long with me

How's about savin' all your time for me

No more lookin', I know I've been tooken

Hello out there we're on the air, it's hockey night tonight.

Tension grows the whistle blows and the puck goes down the ice.

The goalie jumps and the players bump, and the fans all go insane.

Someone roars Bobby scores at the good old hockey game.

Oh! The good old hockey game, is the best game you can name

And the best game you can name, is the good old hockey game

"2nd period!"

Where players dance with skates that flash, the home team trails behind.

But they grab the puck and go bursting up, and they're down across theline.

They storm the crease like bumblebees, they travel like a burning flame.

We see them slide the puck inside, it's a one one hockey game.

Hotel CaliforniaThe Eagles (1977)

capo on 2nd fret

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair

Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air

Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light

My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim I had to stop for the night.

There she stood in the doorway, I heard the mission bell

And I was thinking to myself, "This could be heaven or this could be hell"

Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way

There were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say ...

Welcome to the Hotel California

Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place) Such a lovely face

Plenty of room at the Hotel California

Any time of year (Any time of year) You can find it here

Her mind is Tiffanytwisted, she got the Mercedes Benz

She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys that she calls friends

How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.

Some dance to remember, some dance to forget.

So I called up the Captain, "Please bring me my wine"

He said, "We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixtynine"

And still those voices are calling from far away,

Wake you up in the middle of the night just to hear them say ...

The Hukilau SongJack Owens (1948)

Oh we're going to a hukilau,

Huki huki huki huki huki hukilau.

Ev'rybody loves a hukilau,

Where the laulau is the kaukau at the hukilau.

We'll throw our nets out into the sea

And all the amaama comea swimming to me

Oh we're going to a hukilau

huki huki huki huki hukilau

What a wonderful day for fishing

In the old Hawaiian way

All the hukilau nets are swishing

Down in old Laie Bay

Oh we're going to a hukilau,

Huki huki huki huki huki hukilau.

Ev'rybody loves a hukilau,

Where the laulau is the kaukau at the hukilau.

We'll throw our nets out into the sea

And all the amaama comea swimming to me

Oh we're going to a hukilau

Huki huki huki huki

A huki huki huki

A huki huki huki hukilau

Hush, Little Babytraditional

picking: Threefinger Pattern, 3212

Hush, little baby, don't say a word.

Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird

And if that mockingbird won't sing,

Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring

And if that diamond ring turns brass,

Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass

And if that looking glass gets broke,

Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat

And if that billy goat won't pull,

Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull

And if that cart and bull fall down,

You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town

verse 1

I know I took the path that you would never want for me

I know I let you down, didn't I?

So many sleepless nights where you were waiting up on me

Well I'm just a slave unto the night

Now remember when I told you that's the last you'll see of me

Remember when I broke you down to tears


I gave you hell through all the years

So I, I bet my life, I bet my life, I bet my life on you

I, I bet my life, I bet my life, I bet my life on you

verse 2

I've been around the world but never in my wildest dreams

Would I come running home to you

I've told a million lies but now I tell a single truth

There's you in everything I do

Now remember when I told you that's the last you'll see of me

Remember when I broke you down to tears


I gave you hell through all the years

You ask me why I cut my hair

And change myself completely

I Walk the LineJohnny Cash

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine.

I keep my eyes wide open all the time.

I keep the ends out for the tie that binds.

Because you’re mine I walk the line.

I find it very very easy to be true.

I find my-self alone when day is through.

Yes, I’ll ad-mit that I’m a fool for you.


As sure as night is dark and day is light.

I keep you on my mind both day and night.

And happi-ness I’ve known proves that it’s right.


You’ve got a way to keep me on your side.

You give me cause for love that I can’t hide.

For you I know I’d even try to turn the tide.

I’ve Just Seen a FaceJohn Lennon & Paul McCartney

I've just seen a face, I can't forget the time or place where we just met.

She's just the girl for me, and I want all the world to see we've met. Na na na na na na.

Had it been another day, I might have looked the other way,

And I'd have never been aware but as it is I'll dream of her to-night. Da da da da da da.

Falling, yes I am falling, and she keeps calling me back a-gain.

I have never known the likes of this I've been alone and I have missed

things and kept out of sight, for other girls were never quite like this. Da da da da da da.

With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green

Your smile is like a breath of spring

Your voice is soft like summer rain

From crying when he calls your name Jolene

No phone no pool no pets; I ain't got no cigarettes.

Ah, but, two hours of pushing broom,

Buys a eight by twelve four bit room.

I'm a, man of means, by no means. King of the road.

Third box car midnight train, destination Bangor Maine.

Old worn out suit and shoes, I don't pay no union dues.

I smoke, old stogies I have found,

Short but not too big around.

I'm a, man of means, by no means. King of the road

I know every engineer on every train,

All of the children and all of their names.

And every handout in every town,

And every lock that ain't locked when no one's around, I sing,

Last Saskatchewan PirateThe Arrogant Worms (1992), Captain Tractor (1995), Brad Johner (2003)

Well I used to be a farmer and I made a living fine

I had a little stretch of land along the CP line

But times went by and though I tried the money wasn't there

And bankers came and took my land and told me "Fair is fair"

I looked for every kind of job the answer always "No",

"Hire you now" they'd always laugh, "We just let twenty go!"

The government, they promised me a measley little sum,

But I've got too much pride to end up just another bum!

bridge

Then I ↓thought who gives a damn if all the jobs are ↓gone,

↓I'm gonna be a pirate, on the river Saskatchewan!

'Cause it's a heaveho, hiho, comin' down the plains,

Stealin' wheat and barley and all the other grains,

It's a hohey, hihey, farmers bar yer doors,

When you see the Jolly Roger on Regina's mighty shores.

Well you think the local farmers would know that I'm at large,

But just the other day I found an unprotected barge,

I snuck up right behind them and they were none the wiser,

I rammed the ship and sank it and I stole their fertilizer

A bridge outside of Moose Jaw spans the mighty river,

Farmers cross in so much fear their stomach's are a quiver,

'Cause they know that Tractor Jack is hiding in the bay,

I'll jump the bridge and knock em cold and sail off with their hay!

verse 3

Well Mountie Bob he chased me, he was always at my throat,

He'd follow on the shorelines 'cause he didn't own a boat,

But cutbacks were a comin' so the Mountie lost his job,

So now he's sailin' with me and we call him Salty Bob!

A swingin' sword, a skull and bones, and pleasant company,

I never pay my income tax and screw the GST (SCREW IT!)

Sailin' down to Saskatoon, the Terror of the Sea,

If you wanna reach the Coop boy you gotta get by me!





verse 4

Well pirate life's appealing, but you don't just find it here,

I've heard that in Alberta there's a band of buccaneers,

They roam the Athabasca from Smith to Port McKay,

And you're gonna lose your Stetson if you have to pass their way.

Well winter is a comin' and a chill is in the breeze,

My pirate days are over once the river starts to freeze,

I'll be back in spring time, but now I have to go,

I hear there's lots of plundering down in New Mexico!

I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

But the dawn is breaking, it’s early morn

The taxi's waitin he's blowin his horn

Already I'm so lonesome I could die

So kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that you'll wait for me

Hold me like you'll never let me go

Don't know when I'll be back again

Oh babe I hate to go

When I come back I'll bring your wedding ring

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be,

But though they may be parted, there is

The Log Driver’s WaltzWade Hemsworth (1979)

strum: | D - d u d - | 1 2 & 3

intro

/ / / /

verse 1

If you should ask any girl from the parish around

What pleases her most from her head to her toes

She’ll say: I’m not sure that it’s business of yours

But I do like to waltz with a log driver

For he goes birling down, adown white water

That’s where the log driver learns to step lightly

It’s birling down, adown white water

A log drivers waltz pleases girls completely

verse 2

When the drive’s nearly over, I like to go down

To see all the lads while they work on the river

I know that come evening they’ll be in the town

And we all want to waltz with a log driver




A log driver’s waltz pleases girls completely

To please both my parents, I’ve had to give way

And dance with the doctors and merchants and lawyers

Their manners are fine, but their feet are of clay

For there’s none with the style of my log driver





verse 4

Now I’ve had my chances with all sorts of men

But none as so fine as my lad on the river

So when the drive’s over, if he asks me again

I think I will marry my log driver





Birling down, adown white water

MargaritavilleJimmy Buffett (1977)

verse 1

Nibblin' on sponge cake, watchin' the sun bake,

All of those tourists covered with oil,

Strummin' my fourstring, on my front porch swing,

Smell those shrimp, they're beginning to boil

Wastin' away again in Margaitaville

Searching for my lost shaker of salt

Some people claim that there's a woman to blame,

But I know, it's nobody's fault.

verse 2

I don't know the reason, I stay here all season,

Nothin' is sure but this brand new tatoo,

But it's a real beauty, a Mexican cutie,

How it got here, I haven't a clue




Now I think, hell, it could be my fault.

And I know, it's my own damned fault.

Monster MashBobby Pickett

verse 1

I was working in the lab late one night

When my eyes beheld an eerie sight

For my monster from his slab began to rise

And suddenly to my surprise

(He did the mash.) He did the monster mash.

(The monster mash.) It was a graveyard smash.

(He did the mash.) It caught on in a flash.

(He did the mash.) He did the monster mash.

verse 2

From my laboratory in the castle east

To the master bedroom where the vampires feast

The ghouls all came from their humble abodes

To get a jolt from my electrodes

(They did the mash.) They did the monster mash.(The monster mash.) It was a graveyard smash.(They did the mash.) It caught on in a flash.(They did the mash.) They did the monster mash.

MoondanceVan Morrison

intro

verse 1

Well it's a marvelous night for a moondance

with the stars up a-bove in your eyes

A fan-tabulous night to make romance

'neath the colour of October skies

All the leaves on the trees are falling

to the sounds of the breezes that blow

And I'm trying to place to the calling

of the heartstrings that play soft and low

You know the night’s magic

seems to whisper and hush.

You know the soft moonlight

seems to shine,

in your blush.

Can I just have one more moon-dance with you my love

Can I just make some more ro-mance with you my love

And I know that the time will be just right

When you come my heart will be waiting

to be sure that you’re never a-lone

There and then all my dreams will come true dear,

there and then I will make you my own

And every time I touch you,

you just tremble in-side

Then I know how much you want me,

that

you can’t hide

Can I just have one more moon-dance with you my love

Can I just make some more ro-mance with you my love

Octopus’s GardenThe Beatles

verse 1

I’d like to be, under the sea,

In an octopus’s garden in the shade.

He’d let us in, knows where we’ve been,

In his octopus’s garden in the shade.

I’d ask my friends to come and see,

An octopus’s garden with me.



verse 2

We would be warm, below the storm,

In our little hideaway beneath the waves.

Resting our head, on the sea bed,

In an octopus’s garden near a cave.

We would sing and dance around,

Because we know we can’t be found.

And I can’t wait to get on the road again.

Insisting that the world keeps turning our way,

Pearly shells from the ocean

Shining in the sun

Covering the shore

When I see them

My heart tells me that I love you

More than all the little pearly shells

For ev'ry grain of sand, upon the beach

I've got a kiss for you

And I've got more left over, for each star

That twinkles in the blue

Rainbow ConnectionKermit the Frog

verse 1

Why are there so many songs about rainbows,

And what's on the other side?

Rainbows are visions, but only illusions.

And rainbows have nothing to hide.

So we've been told and some choose to believe it.

I know they’re wrong. Wait and see.

Some day we'll find it, the rainbow connection,

The lovers, the dreamers, and me.

verse 2

Who said that every wish would be heard and answered

when wished on the morning star?

Somebody thought of that and someone believed it.

Look what it's done so far.

What's so amazing and keeps us stargazing?

And what do we think we might see?

Ring of FireJohnny Cash

Love is a burning thing,

And it makes a fiery ring.

Bound by wild de-sire,

I fell into a ring of fire.

I fell in to a burning ring of fire.

I went down, down, down,

And the flames went higher.

And it burns, burns, burns,

The ring of fire,

The ring of fire.

The taste of love is sweet,

When hearts like ours meet.

I fell for you like a child,

Oh but the fire went wild.

Swingin' On A StarJimmy Van Heusen & Johnny Burke

strum: |: d D u d D u :| (weak Strong and, 1 2 & 3 4 & )

intro (play chorus: just ukes, no vocal)

Would you like to swing on a star,

Carry moonbeams home in a jar,

And be better off than you are

or would you rather be a mule?

A mule is an animal with long funny ears

He kicks up at anything he hears

His back is brawny but his brain is weak

He's just plain stupid with a stubborn streak

And by the way if you hate to go to school

You may grow up to be a mule.

Would you like to swing on a star

carry moonbeams home in a jar

and be better off than you are

or would you rather be a pig?

A pig is an animal with dirt on his face

His shoes are a terrible disgrace

He has no manners when he eats his food

He's fat and lazy and extremely rude.

But if you don't care a feather or a fig

You may grow up to be a pig.

or would you rather be a fish?

A fish won't do anything but swim in a brook

He can't write his name or read a book

To fool the people is his only thought

And though he's slippery he still gets caught

But then if that sort of life is what you wish

You may grow up to be a fish.

And all the monkeys aren't in the zoo

Everyday you see quite a few

So you see it's all up to you.

You can be better than you are.

You can be swinging on a star

Take Me Home, Country RoadsJohn Denver (1971)

capo: 2nd fret

verse 1

Almost heaven, West Virginia,

Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.

Life is old there, older than the trees,

Younger than the mountains, growin' like a breeze.

Country roads, take me home,

To the place I belong:

West Virginia, mountain mama,

Take me home, country roads.

verse 2

All my mem'ries, gather 'round her,

Miner's lady, stranger to blue water.

Dark and dusty, painted on the sky,

Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye.

Tennessee Waltzverse 1

I was waltzing, with my darlin’,

To the Tennessee Waltz,

When an old friend I happened

To see.

Introduced him to my loved one,

And while they were waltzing,

My friend stole my sweetheart

From me.

verse 2

I remember the night

And the Tennessee Waltz.

Now I know just how much I

Have lost.

Yes I lost my little darlin’

The night they were playing

The beautiful Tennessee Waltz.

Ukulele LadyKahn & Whiting, 1925

vamp: ...

I saw the splendor of the moonlight

On Hono- lu- lu Bay

There’s something tender in the moonlight

On Hono- lu- lu Bay

And all the beaches, are full of peaches

Who bring their ukes a-long

And in the glimmer of the moonlight

They like to sing this song.

If you like a Ukulele Lady, a Ukulele Lady like-a you,

If you like to linger where it’s shady, a Ukulele Lady linger too.

If you kiss a Ukulele Lady, while you promise ever to be true,

And if she see a-nother Uku-lele Lady fool a-round with you,

May–be she’ll sigh (an awful lot)

May–be she’ll cry (or maybe not)

Maybe she’ll find somebody else, by and by and by

To sing to when it’s cool and shady, where the tricky Wicki Wackies woo,

She used to sing to me by moonlight

On Hono- lu- lu Bay

My mem’ries cling to me by moonlight

Although I’m far a-way

Someday I’m going, where eyes are glowing,

And lips are made to kiss

To meet somebody in the moonlight

To hear that song I miss.


If you like to linger where it’s shady, a Ukulele Lady linger too.

David Bowie | d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d- |

Love love love love love love love!

Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking.

Freddy Mercury

Can't we give ourselves one more chance?

Why can't we give love that one more chance?

Why can't we give love, give love, give love, give love

give love, give love, give love, give love

David Bowie

'Cause love's such an old fashioned word and love

Dares you to care for the people on the

Edge of the night and love dares you to change our way of

caring about ourselves

This is our last dance

This is our last dance

This is our↓selves ↓

Under the BoardwalkThe Drifters

Oh when the sun beats down and burns the tar upon the roof

And your shoes get so hot you wish your tired feet were fireproof

Under the boardwalk, down by the sea, yeah.

On a blanket with my baby, is where I’ll be.

Under the boardwalk (out of the sun)

Under the boardwalk (we’ll be having some fun)

Under the boardwalk (people walking above)

Under the boardwalk (we’ll be falling in love)

Under the ↓board↓walk, ↓board↓walk

From the park you hear the happy sound of a carousel.

You can almost taste the hot dogs and french fries they sell

verse 1

Headed down south to the land of the pines

And I'm thumbin' my way into North Caroline

Starin' up the road and pray to God I see headlights.

I made it down the coast in seventeen hours

Pickin' me a bouquet of dogwood flowers

And I'm a hopin' for Raleigh I can see my baby tonight.

So rock me mama like a wagon wheel

Rock me mama any way you feel

Hey, mama rock me.

Rock me mama like the wind and the rain

Rock me mama like a southbound train

Hey, mama rock me.

verse 2

Runnin' from the cold up in New England

I was born to be a fiddler in an oldtime stringband

My baby plays the guitar I pick a banjo now>

Oh, the North country winters keep a gettin' me now

Lost my money playin' poker so I had to up and leave

But I ain't a turnin' back to livin' that old life no more.

In the town where I was born

Lived a man who sailed the sea

And he told us of his life

In the land of submarines

So we sailed on to the sun

Till we found the sea of green

And we lived beneath the waves

In our yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine

Yellow submarine yellow submarine

And our friends are all aboard

Many more of them live next door

And the band begins to play

For auld lang syne, my dear,

for auld lang syne,

we’ll take a cup o’ kindness ,

verse 1

So this is Christmas, and what have you done?

Another year over, a new one just begun.

And so this is Christmas, I hope you have fun

The near and the dear ones, the old and the young

A very, merry Christmas, and a happy New Year

Let’s hope it’s a good one without any fear

And so this is Christmas (War is over)

For weak and for strong (If you want it)

For rich and the poor ones (War is over)

The road is so long (Now)

And so happy Christmas (War is over)

For black and for white (If you want it)

For yellow and red ones (War is over)

Let’s stop all the fight (Now)

Here Comes Santa Clausverse 1

Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus,

Right down Santa Claus lane

Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer

Pullin' on the reins

Bells are ringin', children singin'

All is merry and bright

Hang your stockings and say your prayers

'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight!

verse 2

Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus,

Right down Santa Claus lane

He's got a bag that's filled with toys

For boys and girls again

Hear those sleigh bells jingle jangle,

Oh what a beautiful sight

So jump in bed and cover your head

'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight!

Joy to the Worldverse 1

Joy to the world! The Lord is come;

Let earth re-ceive her King;

Let ev-’ry heart prepare Him room,

And heaven and nature sing,

And heaven and nature sing,

And heaven and heaven and na-ture sing.

verse 2

Joy to the world! the Sav-iour reigns;

Let men their songs em-ploy;

While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains

Repeat the sounding joy,

Re-peat the sounding joy,

Re-peat, repeat the sound-ing joy.

verse 3

No more let sins and sorrows grow,Nor thorns infest the ground;He comes to make His blessings flowFar as the curse is found,Far as the curse is found,Far as, far as, the curse is found.

verse 4

He rules the world with truth and grace,And makes the nations proveThe glories of His righteousness,And wonders of His love,And wonders of His love,And wonders, wonders, of His love.

Silent night, holy night!

All is calm, all is bright,

Round yon virgin, mother and child,

Holy infant so tender and mild,

Sleep in heavenly peace

Sleep in heavenly peace.

Shepherds quake at the sight

Glories stream from heaven afar

Heavenly hosts sing Halleluia

Christ the saviour is born

Christ the saviour is born.

Radiant beams from thy holy face,

With the dawn of redeeming grace

Jesus Lord at thy birth

Silver BellsJay Livingston and Ray Evans

verse 1

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks, dressed in holiday style

In the air there’s a feeling of Christmas

Children laughing, people passing, meeting smile after smile.

And on every street corner, you hear

Silver bells, silver bells, it’s Christmas time in the city.

Ringaling, hear them ring.

Soon it will be Christmas Day.

verse 2

Strings of street lights, even stop lights, blink a bright red and green

As the shoppers run home with their treasures.

Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch, this is Santa’s big scene

And above all the bustle, you hear

Silver bells, silver bells, it’s Christmas time in the city.

Ringaling, hear them ring.

Soon it will be Christmas Day.
