[Intro]
A5 G2 A/E Bm7 A D2/F# G2 D/F# Em G5 Dsus D
[Verse 1]
D2 G2/D D
We dim the light We stoke the fire
D2 E Bm F#7/A#
We breathe the evergreen Young ones wait
D/A G#m7 D/A Bm7 Em7
While the old ones make up Tales of how it used to be
D2 G2/D D
China dolls Candy corn
D2 E
Painted wooden toys
Bm F#7/A# D/A G#m7
Treasures found To the wondrous sound
D/A Bm7 Em7 Em7/A D5
Of caroling the Savior Born to us on Christmas morn.
[Chorus]
A D G2 A Bm7
Emmanuel, God with us Emmanuel
A D G2 D/F# Em7 G Dsus D
Emmanuel, God with us The son of Israel
[Verse 2]
D2 G2/D D
And still he calls Through the night
D2 E
Beyond the days of old
Bm F#7/A# D/A G#m7
A voice of peace To the weary ones
D/A Bm7 Em7
Who struggle with the human soul
D2 G2/D D D2 E
All of us Travelers Through a given time
Bm F#7/A# D/A G#m7
Who can know What tomorrow holds?
D/A Bm7 Em7 Em7/A D5
But over the horizon Surely you and I will find
[Bridge]
D F#sus F# Bm Bm
And the years they come And the years they go
F#sus F# Bm Bm
Though we may forget somehow
Em7 Asus A D2 D
That the child once born in Bethlehem
F#sus/C# F#sus F#
Is still among us now
