Silver Bells chords
Jay Livingston and Ray Evans 1950

   C majorC     A minorAm  E minorEm
City sidewalk, busy sidewalks
C majorC     FF
dressed in holiday style.
    G7G7
In the air there's
       C majorC    G+G
a feeling of Christmas.
FF    C majorC     A minorAm   E minorEm
Children laughing, people passing,
C majorC    FF
meeting smile after smile,
    G7G7             C majorC  G+G
And on every street corner you'll hear:

C majorC       FF
Silver bells, silver bells,
G+G     D7D7 G7G7     C majorC  G7G7
it's Christmas time in the city.
C majorC      FF
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,
G+G    D7D7  G7G7      C majorC
soon it will be Christmas day.

   C majorC
City street lights,
A minorAm  E minorEm
even stop lights,
C majorC    FF
blink a bright red and green
    G7G7
As the shoppers rush home
      C majorC     G+G
with their treasures.
C majorC
Hear the snow crunch,
A minorAm   E minorEm
see the kids bunch,
C majorC    FF
this is Santa's big scene
     G7G7           C majorC   G+G
And above all this bustle you'll hear:

C majorC       FF
Silver bells, silver bells,
G+G     D7D7 G7G7     C majorC  G7G7
it's Christmas time in the city.
C majorC      FF
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,
G+G    D7D7  G7G7      C majorC
soon it will be Christmas day.
