Spaceman came travelling on his ship from afar  
G                     C                   G             D  
'Twas light years of time since his mission did start  
Em                       C                G            D  
And over a village he halted his craft  
Em                    C              G              D  
And it hung in the sky like a star  
G                     C               G             D  
Just like a star  

G                   C                G                D  
He followed the light and came down to a world  
G                   C              G               D  
And the people were sleeping, and the people were dreaming  
Em                  C              G                D  
And the night was so still, and the light was so bright  
Em                  C              G                D  
And he whispered to them, and he said to them  

G                  C               G              D  
I have come to bring you love, I have come to bring you peace  
G                  C                 G              D  
I have come to bring you hope, I have come to bring you joy  
Em                  C               G              D  
And the people awoke, and they looked at the light  
Em                  C               G              D  
And they knew that the spaceman had come  

G                     C               G             D  
Spaceman came travelling, on his ship from afar  
G                     C                   G             D  
'Twas light years of time since his mission did start  
Em                       C                G            D  
And over a village he halted his craft  
Em                    C              G              D  
And it hung in the sky like a star  
G                     C               G             D  
Just like a star
