[Am]. While all the door[G]s were
[Am].. shuttered [B]tight
[Em].. Outside stand[D]ing,
[C].. lonely boy[B]- chi[G]ld[Am]
.. Cold [G]and shiver[B]ing .. in the night
[Em]

[Verse 2]
.. On the [D]street, [C].. every win[B]dow
[G]. S[Am]ave but one[G], was .. [Am]gleaming[B] bright
[Em]And to this wind[D]ow .. wa[C]lked
[G]the [Am]boychild
.. Peeking [G]in [B]saw, .. candle [Em]light

Through other [D]windows he had

[Em]Into [D]his [C]coat reached the

[C]A b[Am]it of chees[G]e,
[B]some bread ... to share

[Verse 5]
His outstretched [D]hands held
[C]the food and [B]they trembled[G]
[Am]As the d[G]oor, it open[A]ed wide
[B]Said he, Wou[Em]ld you sha[D]re with
[C]me Christmas [B]dinner
[Am]Gently said [G]she,[B] Come inside
[Em]

[Verse 6]
The grey- haired [D]lady brought
[C]forth to [B]the table[G][Am]
Glasses [G]two and her [Am]last [B]drop of wine
Said [Em]she, Here's [D]a toast to

and es[Em]pe c[B]ially, ... yours and mine
