[Verse 1]
            G
So this is Christmas
                   Am
And what have you done
              D
Another year over
                  G
A new one just begun
               C
And so this is Christmas
                Dm
I hope you have fun
                    G
Your near and your dear ones
                C
The old and the young

[Chorus]
              F
A very Merry Christmas
              G
And a Happy New Year
                  Dm        F
Let's hope it's a good one
             C     D
Without any fear

[Verse 2]
               G
And so this is Christmas
                 Am
For weak and for strong
                 D
The rich and the poor ones
              G
Have waited so long
              C
And so happy Christmas
                  Dm
For black and for white
                G
For yellow and red ones
                   C
Let's stop all the fight

[Chorus]
             F
A very Merry Christmas
                 G
And a Happy New Year
                   Dm        F
Let's hope it's a good one
             C     D
Without any fear

[Verse 3]
               G
And so this is Christmas (war is over)
                Am
And what have we done
             D
Another year over
                  G
And a new one just begun
             C
And so happy Christmas
                Dm
We hope you have fun
                 G
The near and the dear ones
           C
The old and the young

[Chorus]
             F
A very Merry Christmas
                 G
And a Happy New Year
                  Dm        F
Let's hope it's a good one
            C     D
Without any fear

[Outro]
G           Am
War is over if you want it
D           G
War is over now
G           Am
War is over if you want it
D           G  
War is over now
G
War is over if you want it
D            G
War is over now
