Away In A Manger By John Denver




Intro:  / A - - / E - - / B7 - - / E - - /
      E (2)                        A            E
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
        B7 (2)                     E (2)
The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head;
           E (2)                          A                    E
The stars in the sky looked down where He lay;
       A              E            B7             E (2)
The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay.

         E (2)                         A              E
The cattle are lowing, the poor baby wakes.
      B7 (2)                        E (2)
But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes;
    E                                         A                      E
I love Thee, Lord Jesus!  Look down from the sky,
          A               E            B7           E (2)
And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh.

        E (2)                        A                    E
Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
         B7 (2)                   E (2)
Close by me forever and love me I pray
         E (2)                            A               E
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
        A               E           B7                     E (hold)
And take us to heaven to live with Thee there
