The First Noel Matt Maher

Verse 1:
      Fmaj7    C/E      Dm7          Cmaj7
The first noel, the angels did say
        Fmaj7             C/E          Dm7           Cmaj7
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
     Fmaj7           C/E      Dm7            Cmaj7
In fields where they lay, keeping their sheep
      Fmaj7            C/E         Dm7      Cmaj7
On a cold winter’s night, that was so deep  

Pre-Chorus:
  Fmaj7   C/E  Dm  C/E
Noel, Noel
  Fmaj7   C/E  Am  G
Noel, Noel  

Chorus:
                F      C    Am
Sing out with one accord
  G      F       C     Am
Praises to the Lord
G            F    C    Am  G
Oh come let us adore
 Csus   C   
Noel, Noel
 Fmaj7         C/E   Dm7   C/E
Born is the King  

Verse 2:
       Fmaj7     C/E     Dm7     Cmaj7
They looked up and saw a star
         Fmaj7    C/E      Dm7        Cmaj7
Shining in the east, beyond them far
     Fmaj7     C/E      Dm7          Cmaj7
And to the earth it gave great light
     Fmaj7      C/E           Dm7      Cmaj7
And so it continued, both day and night 

Chorus:
                F      C    Am
Sing out with one accord
  G      F       C     Am
Praises to the Lord
G            F    C    Am  G
Oh come let us adore
 Csus   C   
Noel, Noel
 Fmaj7         C/E   Dm7   C/E
Born is the King  

Chorus 2:
                F      C    Am
Sing out with one accord
  G      F       C     Am
Praises to the Lord
G            F    C    Am
Go and tell everyone
 G       F        C/E  Am  G
Jesus Christ is born
  F    C/E   Dm   C  
Noel, Noel
