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