The First Nowell Christmas Guitar Chords

[Intro]
D# A# F7 A#

[Verse 1]
A# D# A#
The first Nowell the Angel did say
D# A#
Was to certian poor Shepherds
F7 A#
In fields as they lay.
A# D# A#
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep,
D# A# F7 A#
On a cold winter’s night that was so deep.

[Chorus]
A# Dm D# A#
Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell.
D# A# F7 A#
Born is the King of Israel.

[Verse 2]
A# D# A#
They looked up and saw a star
D# A# F7 A#
Shining in the East, beyond them far,
A# D# A#
And to the earth it gave great light,
D# A# F7 A#
And so it continued, both day and night.

[Chorus]
A# Dm D# A#
Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell.
D# A# F7 A#
Born is the King of Israel.

[Verse 3]
A# D# A#
And by the light of that same Star
D# A# F7 A#
Three Wise Men came from country far,
A# D# A#
To seek for a King was their intent,
D# A# F7 A#
And to follow the Star wherever it went.

[Chorus]
A# Dm D# A#
Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell.
D# A# F7 A#
Born is the King of Israel.

[Verse 4]
A# D# A#
This Star drew nigh to the North West;
D# A# F7 A#
O’er Bethlehem it took it’s rest.
A# D# A#
And there it did both stop and stay,
D# A# F7 A#
Right over the place where Jesus lay.

[Chorus]
A# Dm D# A#
Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell.
D# A# F7 A#
Born is the King of Israel.

[Verse 5]
A# D# A#
Then enter’d in those Wise Men three,
D# A# F7 A#
Full reverently upon their knee,
A# D# A#
And offer’d there, in his presence,
D# A# F7 A#
Their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense.

[Chorus]
A# Dm D# A#
Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell.
D# A# F7 A#
Born is the King of Israel.

[Verse 6]
A# D# A#
Then let us all with one accord
D# A# F7 A#
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord;
A# D# A#
That hath made heaven and earth of naught,
D# A# F7 A#
And with his blood mankind hath bought.

[Chorus]
A# Dm D# A#
Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell.
D# A# F7 A#
Born is the King of Israel.
