"|" marks the first beat of a bar 
 
|C       |Em C   Em C   |C      |Em C   Em C 
|C       |Em C   Em C   |C      |Em C   Em C 
 
              |F    |G                 |C                | 
It's Christmastime, there's no need to be afraid 
            |F       |G                  |C              | 
At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade 
           |F       |G            |C                |F 
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy 
           |Dm             |G                |C          | 
Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime 
 
 
          |F     |G            |C                        | 
But say a prayer, Pray for the other ones 
            |F        |G                    |C           | 
At Christmastime it's hard, but when you're having fun 
          |F                 |G 
There's a world outside your window 
           |C                 |F 
And it's a world of dread and fear 
          |Dm        |G 
Where the only water flowing 
       |C              |F 
Is the bitter sting of tears 
        |Dm                  |G 
And the Christmas bells that ring there 
        |C                 |F 
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 Christmastime 
    |F                    |G               |C    | 
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life, Ohhhh 
      |F           |G 
Where nothing ever grows 
   |C              |F 
No rain nor rivers flow 
|Dm               |G               |C      |F   C 
Do they know it's Christmastime at all? 
 
|Am 
Here's to you 
|G 
Raise a glass for everyone 
|Am 
Spare a thought this yuletide for the deprived 
|G 
If the table was turned would you survive 
|Am 
Here's to them 
|G 
Underneath that burning sun 
|Am 
You ain't gotta feel guilt just selfless 
|G 
Give a little help to the helpless 
|F                |G                
Do they know it's Christmastime at 
|C       |Em C   Em C   |C      |Em C   Em C 
all? 
 
|C       |Em C   Em C   |C      |Em C   Em C 
Feed the world 
|C       |Em C   Em C   |C      |Em C   Em C 
Feed the world 
|C       |F   C   |F      |G         
Feed the world 
|C       |F   C   |F      |G   
Feed the world 
|C       |F   C 
Feed the world 
|F                 |G   
Let them know it's Christmastime again 
|C       |F   C 
Feed the world 
|F                 |G   
Let them know it's Christmastime again 
|C       |F   C 
Feed the world 
|F                 |G   
Let them know it's Christmastime again 
|C       |F   C 
Feed the world 
|F                 |G   
Let them know it's Christmastime again 
 
|C       |Bb      |Am      |G 
|C       |Bb      |Am      |G 
 
|C       |Bb      |Am      |G 
Feed the world                - repeat to fade
