Hour Before Christmas Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Streets are finally emptying
Ten shutters [Bm]coming down
[C]I'm watch[Dsus4]ing as the c[D]ity
[G]starts to breathe again

[Verse 2]
The mad in [G]crowd dispersing,
people [Bm]going home
Just [C]an hour [Bm]left be[G]fore
the eve descend

[Verse 3]
When [G]the world feels [Em]right
In the [C]silent [G]night[Dsus4][D]

[Verse 4]
Sometimes if [G]I stopped [C]you closed
my [Dsus4]eye s[D]
I believe that [G]it's all [C]true, [Dsus4]believe it
[D]And understand the[Em]re is no [C]other tim[G]e
When [D]peace can touch us [Am]all[G][C]
Like the hour before Christmas
[G]

[Verse 5]
[A]Bells call from cathedrals
[F#m]Star fall from the skies
Chil[D]dren sleeping sound
[A]in their beds tonight

[Verse 6]
[A]Loved ones gone before us
Like [F#m]footprints in the snow
[D]Christmas cards remember
we will [A]never let them go

[Verse 7]
In that [D]midnight hour

[Verse 8]
In that silence
[D][A]
[E]Sometim[A]es if I stopped you[D] closed
my [Esus4]eye s[E]
I believe that [A]it's all [D]true, [Esus4]believe it
[E]And understand the[F#m]re is no oth[D]er tim[A]e
When [E]peace can touch us [Bm]all

[Verse 9]
[Bm]Snowflakes falling [E]into morning
[Bm]Time is standing still

[Interlude 1]
[E][B][G#m][G#][G#m][E]

[Verse 10]
[B]Heart now hear the angels [G#m]sing
And our new king's [E]born today
[Bm]Sometimes if

[Verse 11]
[A]I stopped [D]you closed
my [Esus4]eyes[E]
I believe that [A]it's all [D]true, [Esus4]believe it
[E]And understand the[F#m]re is no oth[D]er tim[A]e
When [E]peace can touch us [Bm]all[A][D]
When angels hear [Bm]our c[A]all[D]
In the hour before Christmas
[A][F#m]

[Verse 12]

Oh Christmas Eve
