Capo 5th Fret
G+G
C majorC G+G
When I was but a youngster Christmas meant one thing
D7D7 G+G
That I'd be getting lots of toys that day
D7D7 G+G
I learned a whole lot different when mother set me down
A7A7 D7D7
And taught me to spell Christmas this way
G+G C majorC
C is for the Christ Child born upon this day
G+G D7D7
H for Herald Angels in the night
G+G C majorC
R means our redeemer I means Israel
D7D7 G+G
S is for the star that shone so bright
D7D7 G+G
T is for three wise men they who traveled far
A7A7 D7D7
M's for the manger where He lay
G+G C majorC
A's for all He stands for S means shepherds came
D7D7 G+G
And that's why there's a Christmas Day
D7D7 G+G
