Spaceman Came Travellin’
Am C G Am
A spaceman came travelling on his ship from afar,
C G F F G
'twas light years of time since his mission did start,
Am Em F Am
And over a village he halted his craft,
C G F G Am
And it hung in the sky like a star, just like a star.
Am C G Am
He followed a light and came down to a shed,
C G F G
Where a mother and a child were lying there on a bed,
Am Em F Am
A bright light of silver shone round his head,
C G F G Am
And he had the face of an angel, and they were afraid.
Am C G Am
Then the stranger spoke, he said "Do not fear,
C G F F G
I come from a planet a long way from here
Am Em F Am
And I bring a message for mankind to hear",
C G F G Am
And suddenly the sweetest music filled the air.
F G Am Em F Am
And it went la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,
C G F G
La, la, la, la, la, la, la,
Am Em F Am
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,
C G F G Am
Peace and good will to all men, and love for the child.
Am C G Am
This lovely music went trembling through the ground,
C G F F G
And many were wakened on hearing that sound,
Am Em F Am
And travellers on the road, the village they found,
C G F
By the light of that ship in the sky,
F G Am
Which shone all around
Am C G Am
And just before dawn at the paling of the sky,
C G F G
The stranger returned and said "Now I must fly,
Am Em F Am
When two thousand years of your time has gone by,
C G F G Am
This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry".
Chorus x2 end w/ "To a baby’s cry"
