Dm

[Verse 1]
                         F         Am
In the dessert where the stars are bright
    C      F       G         C
And constellations rule your life
E7                       A7
Long ago three kings set out
   C      F          Dm
To follow a peculiar light


[Verse 2]
                     F      Am
What did they see up in the sky
     C         F          G        C
That made them take leave of their land?
    E7                   A7
And carry gifts on camel back
C    F                Dm
Over years of endless sand


[Verse 3]
                           F         Am
Through cloudless days and cloudless nights
    C      F       G     C
The bells upon the camel ringing
E7                               A7
And the wind playing on riffs of sand
   C           F                Dm
It must be the voices of angels singing


[Chorus]
                  F    Am
Gold to crown his loftiness
Dm                 G       Dm      C  F   C
Myrrh for the man upon his death
Dm               G    Dm     A7  Dm   A7
Frankincense for godliness


[Verse 4]
                      F       Am
Black smoke hides the stars tonight
    C       F        G      C
And mines explode in golden sand
E7                        A7
Underground, black waters flow
   C      F                   Dm
In Afghan fields, the poppies grow


[Chorus]
                  F    Am
Gold to crown his loftiness
Dm                 G       Dm      C  F   C
Myrrh for the man upon his death
Dm               G    Dm
Frankincense for godliness
