[Verse 1]
              A                      Bm
Goin' down to Bethlehem, to see the son of man
      D                 E                    A
Lyin' away in a manger, praise the prince of peace
A                             Bm
Wheels start turnin', fires start burnin'
        D                    E                 A
Shine a light on the wisemen, journeying from the East

[Chorus]

See the shepherds on a hillside, lookin' up at the sky
D                         E      A
On a cold winter night they hear the angels sing
             A                               Bm
In a dream I heard a voice said "fear not, come rejoice
          D                    E                   A
It's the end of the beginning, praise the new born king"
