Pretty simple song. He just turns his chords into arpeggios. Listen to the song if
you're confused during any part and it should be really easy to figure out.
Just go up and down the chord like this:
into the root note of the next chord. Only strange part will be when moving from Em to
Bm7 because the last note of Em is the first note of Bm7, so you play that note twice.
The "step to B" part is played as two triplet groups up to the C chord like this:
When you step down to Am from C it's this (just the opposite)
Finally, the chords:
[C] [F] [G7] [Em] [Bm7] [C7] [Am]
[C]O holy night, the [F]stars are brightly [C]shining;
It is the night of our [G7]dear Savior's[C] birth!
Long lay the world in [F]sin and error [C]pini[C7]ng,
Till He [Em]appeared and the [Bm7]soul felt its [Em]worth.
A [G7]thrill of hope, [C]the weary soul rejoices,
G7 C step to B
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Am Em F Am step to B
Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices!
O [C]nig[G7]ht di[C]vin[F]e, O [C]night[G7] when Christ was [C]born!
O [G7]night, [C]divin[F]e, O [C]night, [G7]O night di[C]vine!
[C]Truly He taught us to [F]love one a[C]nother;
His law is love and His [G]Gospel is [C]peace.
Chains shall He break for the [F]slave is our [C]broth[C7]er
And in His [Em]Name all [Bm7]oppression shall [Em]cease.
Sweet [G7]hymns of joy in [C]grateful chorus raise we,
G7 C step to B
With all our hearts, praise His holy Name!
Am Em F Am step to B
Christ is the Lord! Then ever, ever praise we
Hi[C]s p[G7]ower and [C]gl[F]ory [C]ever[G7]more [C]proclaim
His [G7]power and [C]glo[F]ry [C]ever[G7]more [C]proclaim
