This song is played on banjo, and since I do not have a banjo, I learned it on Ukulele and guitar.
These are the chords to the song. Enjoy!

Standard tuning.
[***] = Play melodic lick

Intro: A augmentedA

A augmentedA
Well, on Queen Street they're all laughing
      B minorBm
And they're piling the boxes up high
    A augmentedA
But the sidewalk looks like ashes
     D MajorD            A augmentedA
From the cars that are passing us by

A augmentedA
There is water on your lashes
    B minorBm
Must be more than just snow in your eyes
    A augmentedA
While I tie a bright red sash around
   D MajorD             A augmentedA
Your shoulders, and that will be fine
         E MajorE  [***]
'Cause you are a gift

D MajorD     A augmentedA
You are a gift
A augmentedA     E MajorE  [***]
You are a gift
D MajorD     A augmentedA
You are a gift

A augmentedA
Well, if trees could be a warning
      B minorBm
Then I'd know where my collar should hide
   A augmentedA
And I know tomorrow morning
   D MajorD             A augmentedA
Just exactly whose heart isn't fine

A augmentedA
It's a silent night
       B minorBm
But I cannot tell if it's truly divine
       A augmentedA
Bells will be ringing, but I would be blind to them
        D MajorD              A augmentedA    E MajorE  [***]
Outside they're singing, but I don't pay no mind to them

D MajorD       A augmentedA
When you are a gift
A augmentedA     E MajorE  [***]
You are a gift
D MajorD     A augmentedA
You are a gift
