Traditional
I Saw Three Ships
[Verse 1: Robert Lamm, with backing vocalists]
I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas Day in the morning

[Verse 2: Robert Lamm, with backing vocalists]
And what was in those ships all three
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day?
And what was in those ships all three
On Christmas Day in the morning?

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3: America]
This piece of Earth that came to me
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
This peace on Earth that came to be
On Christmas Day

[Verse 4: Robert Lamm with backing vocalists]
And all the bells on Earth shall ring
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day
And all the bells on Earth shall ring
On Christmas Day
