AWAY IN A MANGER CHORDS

Standard (EADGBE) Tuning
Capo fret 2 (if necessary)

G G7 C G
Away in a manger, No crib for a bed,

D D G G
The little Lord Jesus, Lay down his sweet head.

G G7 C G
The stars in the bright sky, Looked down where he lay

D7 G C D7 G
The little Lord Jesus, Asleep on the hay.

*Follow the same chord pattern for the rest of the song…

The cattle a-lowing, the baby awakes;
But little Lord Jesus, No crying he makes.
I love thee, Lord Jesus, Look down from the sky,
And stay by my bedside, ‘Till morning is nigh.

Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask thee to stay,
Close by me forever, and love me I pray.
Bless all the dear children, in thy tender care,
And fit us for heaven, to live with thee there.
