Tom: C5
C5 E5 A5 C5
We waited all through the year
F5 G5
for the day to appear
C5 E5 A5 A5 G5
when we could be together in harmony
C5 E5 A5 C5
You know the time will come
F5 G5
peace on earth for everyone
C5 E5 A5 A5 D5 G5
and we can live forever in a world where we are free
D5 G5
let it shine for you and me
C5
There's something about Christmas time
F5
something about Christmas time
C5 G5
that makes you wish it was Christmas everyday
C5
To see the joy in the children's eyes
F5
the way that the old folks smile
C5 G5 C5
says that Christmas will never go away
We're all as one tonight
makes no difference if you're black or white
'cause we can sing together in harmony
I know it's not too late
the world would be a better place
if we can keep the spirit more than one day in the year
send a message loud and clear
Repeat Chorus:
G5 C5
It's the time of year when everyone's together
G5 C5
we'll celebrate here on Christmas day
A5
when the ones you love are there
D5 G5 F5
you can feel the magic in the air
E5 G5
you know it's everywhere
C5
There's something about Christmas time
F5
something about Christmas time
(Shift the chords one tone higher:
D5 )
There's something about Christmas time
something about Christmas time
that makes you wish it was Christmas every day
To see the joy in the children's eyes
the way that the old folks smile
says that Christmas will never go away
Repeat chorus
Please tell me Christmas will never go away
