Factories are all shut down and the shopping malls are all closed
D G
The busy streets are all empty except for the falling snow
C G
In the small towns, in the cities families gather as one
D G
'Cause the night of love and sharing they look forward to has come
[Chorus]

Tonight is Christmas, tonight is love

Tonight we celebrate God's one and only Son

Tonight there's hope for peace on earth eternally
Am D G Em
Tonight is Christmas and the world's in harmony
A D A
But across the seas two armies stare down at each other's guns
E A
Each believing in their cause enough to die or kill the other one
D A
But tonight there'll be no shooting, not a drop of blood will spill
E A
They will cease their fire this silent night in the name of peace and goodwill
D E A
Tonight is Christmas, tonight is love
