SONG:
E minorEm
There's snow on your collar, boy
           G+G
There's snow on the bench
     D MajorD
There's snow on the sleeping grave
         A minorAm
And the crooked fence

C majorC
And if you've been crying
    C(with pinky)
With my hand on my chest
I swear I'll never tell

E minorEm
The town is aglow with lights
       G+G
The carolers sing
D MajorD
You sister won't sleep tonight
          A minorAm
For the morning brings
 C majorC
That old happy Christmas
     C(with pinky)
You came here to find it
I did as well

E minorEm            G+G
For joy doesn't come in boxes
  D MajorD          A minorAm
Nor peace in a heavy watch
 C majorC      E minorEm      G+G        D MajorD
Those red ribbon foxes are not so easy caught
     A minorAm    G+G   D MajorD
But the search it never stops

The son of a holy man
You dream of the saints
So thin with your poet hands
And your eyes of flame

And I'd like to kiss you
Full on the mouth
I don't care if you tell

For love doesn't come in boxes
Nor truth in a crowded shop
Those red ribbon foxes are not so easy caught
But the search it never stops

E minorEm   G+G    D MajorD
Ohhh, ooohh, oooh,
A minorAm
dum dum dum da da da,
C majorC
dum dum da da da
C(with pinky)
Uhuh aaaaaah

For faith doesn't come in boxes
Nor God in your silver cross
Those red ribbon foxes are not so easy caught
But the search goes on and on
  E minorEm     G+G    D MajorD
The search it never stops


A augmentedA few notes on how to play:
On the C majorC chord during the verse, you sometimes put your
pinky down where you would on a G+G chord where the lyrics go
slightly high on that line and hold it there for a
couple of beats until you switch the chord.
