Em                    C
What wishes will you make
G                   D
When the season is near
Em                       C
Will your dreams be the same
G                   D
As they were last year
 
Em                   C
Will you ask for a little
G                   D
Will you ask for a lot
C
And when you make your list
D
Will there be something you forgot
 
Em                   C
How about peace on earth
G                      D
It can't be bought or sold
Em                        C
How about peace this Christmas
G                     D
And someones hand to hold
Em                      C
How about love in our hearts
G                    D
And hope for you and me
Em                   C
How about peace on earth
G                D
That's what Christmas should be
 
Will you get all the things 
(Play the same chords as first verse)
That you've been waiting for
Snowfall and presents
Choire singing at your door
 
This season will be perfect
Like those picture postcards seem
But is that the anwser
Is that what Christmas really means
 
How about peace on earth 
(Play same chords as previous chorus)
It can't be bought or sold
How about peace this Christmas
And someones hand to hold
How about love in our hearts
And hope for you and me
How about peace on earth
That's what Christmas should be
 
D                  C
What would you sacrifice
       G              D    C G
What would you give away
D                  C
For the greatest gift of all
      G       D
On Christmas day
 
How about peace on earth 
(You can pluck the strings here till 'someones hand to hold' to
same chords as the chorus)
It can't be bought or sold
How about peace this Christmas
And someones hand to hold
How about love in our hearts
And hope for you and me
How about peace on earth
 
How about peace on earth
It can't be bought or sold
How about peace this Christmas
And someones hand to hold
How about love in our hearts
And hope for you and me
How about peace on earth
How about peace on earth
That's what Christmas should be
 
Merry Christmas
