The Hope Of Christmas Cifras

[Intro]
G  Am7  D  Gsus4  G
 
 
[Verse 1]
        G
Take me back to eight years old
           Am7
The little church on a dead-end road
       D
With a candle flicker in one hand
    C             G
And Dad’s hand in the other
        G
Take me back to Silent Night
             Am7
My heart was full and the world was right
             D
‘Cause right now the world looks nothing like
      C          G
Those innocent Decembers
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Am7                                  D
These days peace on earth is hard to find
      G                             C
And I need you to remind me one more time
 
 
[Chorus]
G                        Am7
You’re still the hope of Christmas
D                               Gsus4       G/F#
You’re still the light when the world looks dark
Em                       Am7
You’re still the hope of Christmas
    D                           G
And You’re still the hope of my heart
 
 
[Interlude]
Am7  D  Gsus4  G
 
 
[Verse 2]
          G
Watch the snowflakes falling down
       Am7
Like a blanket on this town
      D
For a moment we can hardly see
    C              G
The pain this year has brought us
        G
May the sick find healing’s touch
             Am7
May hatred’s fight be won with love
        D
And may every heart make room for You,
    C            G
The One who came to save us
 
 
[Chorus]
      G                        Am7
Cause You’re still the hope of Christmas
D                               Gsus4       G/F#
You’re still the light when the world looks dark
Em                       Am7
You’re still the hope of Christmas
    D                           G
And You’re still the hope of my heart
 
 
[Interlude]
Am7  D  Gsus4           G/F#    Em         Am7  D  G
             You're the hope of Christmas!
 
[Verse 3]
           G
I bowed my head to pray tonight
        Am7
Felt my little girl by my side
    D
She slipped her tiny hand in mine
    C                 G
And we both talked to You
               G
And it took me back to eight years old
           Am7
My daddy’s hand and a story told
      D
About Heaven’s love in a manger low
      C              G
And a promise that’s still true
 
 
[Chorus]
G                        Am7
You’re still the hope of Christmas
D                               Gsus4       G/F#
You’re still the light when the world looks dark
Em                       Am7
You’re still the hope of Christmas
    D                           G
And You’re still the hope of my heart
 
G                        Am7
You’re still the hope of Christmas
D                               Gsus4       G/F#
You’re still the light when the world looks dark
Em                       Am7        N.C.
You’re still the hope of Christmas
    D                           G
And You’re still the hope of my heart
