How To Play Midnight Clear: Chris Tomlin

I am listening to the album Adore by Chris Tomlin. I caught the awesome special on TV the other night. It was a great celebration of worship. I thought you might want to play along with this song.

Midnight Clear (Love Song)

From Adore (Christmas Songs of Worship)
Additional words by Chris Tomlin, Ed Cash, and Jonas Myrin

Intro

Bb  Eb/Bb  F/Bb Bb (2xs)

Bb

It came upon the midnight clear
         Eb2                    F(add4)

That glorious song of old

          Bb                     Gm7
From angels bending near the earth

      Eb2           F(add4)   Bb
To touch their harps of gold

           Dm7                     Gm7
Peace on the earth, goodwill to men

          C                               F(add4)
From heaven's all gracious King

         Bb                     Gm7
The world in solemn stillness lay

      Eb2       F(add4)
To hear the angels sing

Verse 2

Still through the cloven skies they come
With peaceful wings unfurled
And still their heavenly music floats
Through all the weary world
And man at war with man hears not
The love song which they bring
O hush the noise and cease the strife
And hear the angels sing

Glory to God in the highest

Glory to God evermore
