A Spaceman came Travelling

Am            C                 G        Am  
1. A spaceman came travelling in his ship from afar,  
           C              G              F                 G  
    t`was light-years of time since his mission did start,  
         Am      G          F          Am  
    and over a village he halted his craft,  
            C           G           F  G F          G  Am  G Am  
    and it hung in the sky like a star ---- just like a star.  
       Am          C              G         Am  
2. He followed a light and came down to a shed,  
             C           G                F         G  
    where a mother and child were lying there on a bed,  
        Am             G       F              Am  
    a bright light of silver shone round his head,  
         C          G          F     G F       G    Am    G Am  
    and he had the face of an angel ---- and they were afraid.  

              Am       C        G              Am  
3. And the stranger spoke, he said : "Do not fear!"  
       C            G       F                  G  
    I come from a planet a long way from here,  
        Am          G           F          Am  
    and I bring a message for mankind to hear,  
         C              G      F    G F     G     Am  G Am  
    and suddenly the sweetest music ---- filled the air.  
         F  G      Am  G  F  Am - C  G  F - G -  Am  G  F  Am  
    and it went : "Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala,  
      C            G           F   G F        G    A       G Am  
    peace and goodwill to all men, ---- and love for the child.   
        F  G     Am  G  F  Am - C  G  F - G -  Am  G  F  Am - C G F Am -G Am  
   And it went :" Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala."  
         Am      C           G                     Am  
4. This lovely music went trembling through the ground,  
         C         G        F            G  
    and many were waken on hearing that sound,  
          Am                G         F            Am  
    and travellers on the road, the village they found,  
            C              G          F   G F          G       Am  
    by the light of that star in the sky ---- which shone on now.  
        Am           C            G             Am  
5. And just before dawn, at the paling of the sky,  
          C        G                 F             G  
   the stranger returned and said :"Now I must fly.  
          Am            G             F             Am  
    When two thousand years of your time have gone by,                  
          C           G         F   G F         G Am   G Am  
    this song will begin once again ---- to a baby`s cry!"  
         F  G       Am  G  F  Am - C  G  F - G -  Am  G  F  Am  
    And it went : "Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala  
          C           G         F   G F          G  Am   G Am  
    this song will begin once again ----  to a baby`s cry."   
         F   G     Am  G  F  Am - C  G  F - G -  Am  G  F  Am  
    And it goes :"Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala  
      C            G           F    G F            G        Am  
    peace and goodwill to all men, -----and love for the child.  
              F             G  
    Oh, the whole world is waiting.  
     Am   G         F                    Am   
    Lalalala..... waiting to hear this song again,  
 C                 G             F  
    spacemen are standing on the edge of the world,  
     G        Am              G             F   Am  
    and the star is glowing somewhere in eternity,  
          C           G         F    G F          G    Am  
    This song will begin once again ---- to a baby`s cry."
