Cit y side walks, bus y side walks dressed in hol i day style,
in the air there’s a feel ing
of Christ mas.
Chil dren laugh ing, peo ple pass ing, meet ing smile af ter smile,
and on ev ’ry street cor ner you hear:
Sil bells,
sil ver bells,
it’s Christ mas time
in the cit y.
Ring ling,
hear them ring,
soon it will be Christ mas Day!
Strings of street lights, e ven stop lights, blink a bright red and green,
as the shop pers run home with
their treas ures.
Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch, this is San ta’s big scene,
and a bove all this bus tle you hear:
Sil bells,
sil ver bells,
it’s Christ mas time
in the cit y.
Ring ling,
hear them ring,
soon it will be Christ mas Day!
Strings of Day!
This page shows “Silver Bells” by Jay Livingston in our color-coded kid songbook view — every note is colored by pitch (red C, orange D, yellow E, green F, blue G, purple A, pink B) and the lyrics sit directly under each note, so children can sing along while they play. The song is in the key of C at 72 BPM, a slightly more challenging arrangement — practice each phrase slowly first.
