Verse 1 : 
Eb   Bb       F       C        Eb Bb         F
 Empty manger, perfect stranger, about to be born 
    Eb        Bb       F        C        Eb Bb         F
Into darkness, sadness, desperate madness, creation so torn 
       Eb      Bb       F          C        Eb   Bb       F
We were so lost on earth, no peace, no worth, no way to escape 
Eb      Bb         F       C        Eb Bb     F
 In fear, no faith, no hope, no grace, and no light 
(F)
But that was the night before Christmas

And the shepherds, wise men come to find them, and bow to a king

 One star above shining on love, so bright it lit up the night before Christmas
