[Verse]
G C G C
Cal made a long table for his bride, June
D
When the first child was born and they needed more room
C G D G
Cal was one of four sons, there was too little farm
C G D
And the railroad had work, so they move into town
[Verse]
G C G C
First came Emmet and Clara, William and Grace
D
Around the long table, they all took their place
C G D G
Every year they would gather, sing carols and hymns
C G D
With canned peaches and shortcake and four wide grins
[Chorus]
Em D/F# C G
But it feels like it's been one long Christmas dinner
Em D/F# C D
One unending prayer, one unbroken line
C G D G
Singing, “Be Thou My Vision”, by day or by night
C G D G C G C
All is calm and all is bright
[Verse]
G C G C
Eating strawberry jam from our Victory Garden
D
June kept giving Emmet more food than he wanted
C G D G
As if she could fill him with enough food and faith
C G D
To last him through Europe and bring him home safe
[Verse]
G C G C
Clara moved back at Christmas with her two children
D
When her husband ran off with a girl who was willing
C G D G
When Grace's small daughter offered up her shortcake
C G D
Clara leaned on Will's shoulder and covered her face
[Chorus]
Em D/F# C G
But it feels like it's been one long Christmas dinner
Em D/F# C D
One unending prayer, one unbroken line
C G D G
Singing, “Be Thou My Vision”, by day or by night
C G D G C G C
All is calm and all is bright
[Verse]
G C G C
Long ago Emmet came home, now he carves the ham
D
Though since then he's needed a leg brace to stand
C G D G
He and Grace visit often, help mom with yard work
C G D
Who still can't believe what they are wearing to church
[Verse]
G C G C
Cousin Ann's in Chicago and she stays good friends
D
With cousin Will, who's a painter, lives in South Bend
C G D G
And William's boy, Michael, is a young handsome rogue
C G D
Cruising town with an eight track of Abby Road
[Chorus]
Em D/F# C G
But it feels like it's been one long Christmas dinner
Em D/F# C D
One unending prayer, one unbroken line
C G D G
Singing, “Be Thou My Vision”, by day or by night
C G D G C G C
All is calm and all is bright
[Verse]
G C G C
There's been so many joys, so many cradles
D
But there was one who spent only one year at the table
C G D G
It must have been grandma who gathered her close
C G D
So she'd have no fear when they both passed across
[Verse]
G C G C
So put out the canned peaches in honour of June
D
And for Michael's grown daughter, who's coming home soon
C G D G
For all that we've lost or we haven't found yet
C G D
All who come to the table and clasp hands around
[Chorus]
Em D/F# C G
But it feels like it's been one long Christmas dinner
Em D/F# C D
One unending prayer, one unbroken line
C G D G
Singing, “Be Thou My Vision”, by day or by night
C G D G C G C
All is calm and all is bright
G D G C G C G
All is calm and all is bright
