[Verse]
C
A book was written long ago
C
About a man that we all know
C
The prophets claimed he would save the world
C
Born unto a virgin girl
F G
In a dirty barn in the promised land
C Am C
Was the son of god and the son of man
F G C C
She looked at him and called him Jesus
[Chorus]
F G C G Am G
There in the hills of Bethlehem
F G C G Am G
No one had any room for them
F G C G Am G
They knew that child was a real life changer
F G C F C C
Lyin' there in a king-size manger
[Verse]
C F
Shepherds watched their flocks nearby
C
When an angel appeared in the sky
F
Told 'em not to be afraid
C
The messiah was born today
F G
He ain't in a palace lined with gold
C G Am G
You'll find him in a stable wrapped in swaddling clothes
F G C C
And when they did, they bowed before him
[Chorus]
F G C G Am G
There in the hills of Bethlehem
F G C G Am G
No one had any room for them
F G C G Am C
They knew that child was a real life changer
F G C C
Lyin' there in a king-size manger
[Bridge]
Am G F F
There may not have been a crown on his head
Am G F G
But he fulfilled every word the prophets said
[Chorus]

There in the hills of Bethlehem
F G C G Am G
No one had any room for them
F G C G Am G
They knew that child was a real life changer
F G Am D7
Lyin' there in a king-size manger
Dm G C C C C C
Lyin' there in a king-size manger
This song, as simple as it may seem has touched my spirit. Its bitter-sweet … In the Chorus “no one had any room for them”. The word. (them) should be replaced with Him. I believe to many people think of J.C. as just a idea but He is real …
