Lyrics With Performers
(Paul Young)
E A B
It's Christmas time
E
There's no need to be afraid
A B
At Christmas time
E
We let in light and we banish shade
(Boy George)
A B
And in our world of plenty
E A
We can spread a smile of joy
B
Throw your arms around the world
E
At Christmas time
(George Michael)
A B
But say a prayer
E
Pray for the other ones
A B
At Christmas time it's hard
(Simon LeBon)
E
But when you're having fun
A B
There's a world outside your window
(Sting)
E A
And it's a world of dread and fear
B
Where the only water flowing is
(Bono joins in)
E A
The bitter sting of tears
B
And the Christmas bells that are ringing
E A
Are clanging chimes of doom
B E
(Bono only) Well, tonight thank God it's them instead of you.
(Everyone)
A B E
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time.
A B E
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
A B
Where nothing ever grows
E A
No rain or rivers flow
B E
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?
E A E
(Paul Young)

C#m
Here's to them
B
underneath that burning sun
A B E
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?
E A E
A E B
E A E
A E A B
Chorus (Everyone)

Feed the world

Feed the world

Let them know it's Christmas time
