How to read tablature? 
Verse 1:
   C      F      C
It came upon the midnight clear,
     F        D7      G7
that glorious song of old,
     C      F       C
from angels bending near the earth
   F           G7       C
to touch their harps of gold:
       E7                 Am
“Peace on the earth, good will to men
     G            D7       G
from heaven’s all-gracious King;”
    C        F      C
the world in solemn stillness lay
   F        G7     C
to hear the angels sing.

Verse 2:
      C           F      C
Still through the cloven skies they come
     F        D7      G7
with peaceful wings unfurled,
    C           F        C
and still their heavenly music floats
     F       G7    C
o’er all the weary world:
 E7               Am
above its sad and lowly plains
     G       D7       G
they bend on hovering wing,
    C    F        C
and ever o’er its Babel sounds
    F       G7     C
the blessed angels sing.

Verse 3:
  C     F            C
O ye, beneath life’s crushing load,
      F         D7      G7
whose forms are bending low,
    C     F        C
who toil along the climbing way
     F       G7        C
with painful steps and slow:
     E7                Am
look now! for glad and golden hours
     G       D7     G
come swiftly on the wing;
  C      F        C
O rest beside the weary road
    F        G7     C
and hear the angels sing.

Verse 4:
    C       F        C
For lo! the days are hastening on,
   F        D7      G7
by prophets seen of old,
     C        F    C
when with the ever-circling years
      F        G7       C
shall come the time foretold,
     E7               Am
when peace shall over all the earth
    G       D7        G
its ancient splendors fling,
    C         F          C
and the whole world send back the song
      F       G7     C
which now the angels sing.
