Sung as a duet.
Him:
[E] [B] [E]
My heart is sad, my soul is weary
[E] [B] [E]
Though Christmas day is fast appear
[A] [E]
I have no silver I have no gold
[E] [B] [E]
To buy my wife a gift this year
[E] [B] [E]
To see her sad on Christmas morning
[E] [B] [E]
Is a thing I cannot bear
[A] [E]
I'll pawn the watch my father gave me
[E] [B] [E]
To buy a comb for her hair
Her:
[E] [B] [E]
Oh Mother, Mother what shall I do?
[E] [B] [E]
Though Christmas day is fast appear
[A] [E]
I have no silver I have no gold
[E] [B] [E]
To buy my love a gift this year
[E] [B] [E]
For I am poor and I'm a beggar
[E] [B] [E]
Not a cent have I, no dime I claim
[A] [E]
I'll trade the golden hair that is our pleasure
[E] [B] [E]
Buy for your watch a golden chain
Him:
[E] [B] [E]
Darling, darling today is Christmas
[E] [B] [E]
What has become of your golden hair
[A] [E]
For I've traded our only treasure
[E] [B] [E]
These silver combs for you to wear
Her:
[E] [B] [E]
Darling, darling we've lost our treasure
[E] [B] [E]
My gift to you is a golden chain
[A] [E]
Though we've pawned away our only pleasures
[E] [B] [E]
These gifts we give are not in vain
Like verse:
[E] [B] [E]
[E] [B] [E]
[A] [E]
[E] [B] [E]
Both:
[E] [B] [E]
The wise men came on Christmas morning
[E] [B] [E]
Their gifts of love they came to bear
[A] [E]
From that day on always remembered
[E] [B] [E]
Our own true love forever share
