HAPPY XMAS WAR IS OVER
by John Lennon (1971)

So this is C[G]hristmas And what have you [Am]done
Another year [D]over And a new one just b[G]egun
and so this is Ch[C]ristmas I hope you have [Dm]fun
The near and the dea[G]r one The old and the [C]young
[Chorus]
A very merry C[F]hristmas And a happy New Y[G]ear
Let’s hope it’s a good [Dm]one [F] Without any f[C]ear [D]
And so this is C[G]hristmas For weak and for [Am]strong
For rich and the poor [D]ones The world is so [G]wrong
And so happy Ch[C]ristmas For black and for [Dm]white
For yellow and red [G]ones Let’s stop all the [C]fight
[*Chorus]
And so this is Ch[G]ristmas And what have we [Am]done
Another year [D]over A new one just b[G]egun
And so happy Ch[C]ristmas We hope you have [Dm]fun
The near and the de[G]ar one The old and the y[C]oung
[*Chorus]
[Outro]
[G]War is over, [Am]If you want it [D]War is over [G]Now
