verse 1 
       Em               C 
It was on the stroke of midnight 
       Em              C 
On the final Christmas Eve 
Em          C 
People all around were saying 
 Em            C 
"What do you believe?" 
Em                     C 
Streets were laid with burnished gold 
Em              C 
Statues made of chrome 
   Em               C 
Up spoke the wicked messenger 
        Em            C 
"You're welcome to my home" 

 
G                          Am 
Everything's going to be alright 
Em                         C 
Everything's going to be alright 
G                          Am 
Everything's going to be alright

verse 2 
     Em              C 
Then tempers started flaring 
       Em            C 
As the heat began to rise 
Em                 C 
Fields of corn and rapeseed 
          Em                C 
Turned to dust before their eyes 
Em             C 
People started blaming 
    Em               C 
The changing weather map 
    Em              C 
The chrome began to tarnish 
    Em                C 
The gold was sold for scrap 

 
G                          Am 
Everything's going to be alright 
Em                         C 
Everything's going to be alright 
G                          Am

     Em              C 
Then just before the end of time 
    Em           C 
The sun began to dim 
Em            C 
People of the world began  
   Em            C 
To sing a common hymn 
    Em                C 
The Muslim kissed the Hindu 
    Em               C 
The Hindu kissed the Jew 
    Em                 C 
The Jew kissed all the Buddhists 
        Em                    C 
And the Christians joined the queue 

 
G                          Am 
Everything's going to be alright 
Em                         C 
Everything's going to be alright
