My first tab. Be kind (but honest). The chorus isn't perfect but is done to the best of my ability-- let me know or post your version if you find a better way.
Verse 1:
-4 -6 6 -5 5 -4 5 -5 5-4 4
One small child in a land of a thousand
-4 -6 7 7 7 -7-6 6 -6
One small dream of a savior tonight
-4 -6 6 -5 5 -4 5 -5 5 -4 4
One small hand reaching out to the starlight
-4 -6 6-5 5 -4 -6 6 -5 5 -4 -6 6 -5 5 -4
One small city of life----ooh------------------
Verse 2:
-4 -6 6 -5 5 -4 5-5 5-4 4
One king bringing his gold and riches
-4 -6 7 7 7 -7-6 6 -6
One King ruling an army of might
-4 -6 6 -5 5 -4 5 -5 5 -4 4
One king kneeling with incense and candlelight
-4 -6 6 -5 5 -4 -6 6 -5 5 -4 -6 6 -5 5 -4
One king bringing us life----ooh-----------------
Chorus 1(after verse 2):
-6 -6 6 -6 7 -6 7 -6 6 4
See Him lying, a cradle beneath Him
-6 -6 6 7 -5 5 -4 4
See Him smiling in the stall
-6 -6 6 7 -6 7 -6 6 4
See His mother praising His Father
-6 -6 6 7 -5 5-4 4
See His tiny eyelids fall
Verse 3(same as verses 1-2):
One small light from the flame of a candle
One small light from a city of might
One small light from the stars in the endless night
One small light from a face, ooh----
Chorus 2 (after verse 3, same as chorus 1):
See the shepherds kneeling before him
See the kings on bended knee
See His mother praising His Father
See the Blessed Infant sleep
Verse 4 (same as verses 1-3):
One small child in a land of a thousand
One small dream in a people of might
One small hand reaching out to the starlight
One small savior of life, ooh----
