[Verse 1]
G Am
The garment of life, be it tattered and torn
D7 G
The cloak of the soldier is withered and worn
Em Am
But what child is this that was poverty-born
D7 G
The peace of Christmas Day
[Chorus]
G Am
The branch that bears the bright holly
D7 G
The dove that rests in yonder tree
Em Am
The light that shines for all to see
D7 G
The peace of Christmas Day
[Verse 2]
G Am
The hope that has slumbered for 2000 years
D7 G
The promise that silenced 1000 fears
Em Am
A faith that can hobble an ocean of tears
D7 G
The peace of Christmas Day
[Chorus]
G Am
The branch that bears the bright holly
D7 G
The dove that rests in yonder tree
Em Am
The light that shines for all to see
D7 G
The peace of Christmas Day
[Verse 3]
G Am
Add all the grief that people may bear
D7 G
Total the strife, the troubles and care
Em Am
Put them in columns and leave them right there
D7 G
The peace of Christmas Day
[Chorus]
G Am
The branch that bears the bright holly
D7 G
The dove that rests in yonder tree
Em Am
The light that shines for all to see
D7 G
The peace of Christmas Day
G Am
The branch that bears the bright holly
D7 G
The dove that rests in yonder tree
Em Am
The light that shines for all to see
D7 G
The peace of Christmas Day

Thanks for this tab.
This is what I hear - any line that has the Em Am progression, could be played as Em G/D Cmaj7/A Am
It just has that nice descending progression

Love it! Thank you. I think the G on yonder is a strum on C then G. Merry Christmas!
