Verse 
      G                                   C 
At an antique desk, an old man sits alone 
     Am                     D                 G Bm/F# Bm 
It's Christmas Eve and it's almost time to go 
   Em        D         C      D             G C Bm 
He signs his name to a letter he just wrote 
        Am                   D                G 
Then he reads it back with a voice as soft as snow 

C      Dm       C         Bm        Dm G 
I want peace on earth for Christmas 
     C                   Am      D      G 
In a world where there's not one hungry child 
  C        G        Cm    G        B7            Em Cm/Eb 
A day when hope and faith conquers fear and hate 
D                                      G 
All that's gonna take is a little more love

He walks outside and climbs up on his sleigh 
     Am                        D                     G Bm/F# Bm 
Then calls out to his reindeer and off they fly away 
    Em          D      C       D             G C Bm 
To- night he'll make a million dreams appear 
         Am                    D                    G 
While he wishes his all dreams could come true this year

A day when hope and faith conquers fear and hate

All that's gonna take is a little more love
