Melanie - It's Christmas
CAPO: 5th Fret
INTRO: C/GC/G
I can remember back when we were small
FF C/GC/G Dm7Dm7 G+G
We would start counting the days 'til it all
C/GC/G
Would begin once again, the most magic of times
FF C/GC/G FF ~ ~ C/GC/G
That started us dreaming of wonders we'd find
Then down from the attic, our father would bring
FF C/GC/G Dm7Dm7 G+G
Boxes of ornaments, tinsel and things
C/GC/G
Like old family treasures, a wreath for the door
FF C/GC/G FF ~ ~ C/GC/G
It was almost like we'd never seen them before
CHORUS:
It's Christmas
We'll put up the holly and mistletoe (it's Christmas)
G+G
See the soft coloured lights through the falling snow
C/GC/G
Cards to be sent, carols to be sung
G+G C/GC/G FF C/GC/G DmDm G+G
It's Christmas
C/GC/G
With each passing day, the excitement would rise
FF C/GC/G Dm7Dm7 G+G
When no one was looking, my brother and I
C/GC/G
Would peek at the presents, wrapped so prettily
FF C/GC/G FF ~ ~ C/GC/G
And carefully put them back under the tree
When Christmas Eve came, we could finally say
FF C/GC/G Dm7Dm7 G+G
That morning would only be one sleep away
C/GC/G
We were so excited by what lay ahead
FF C/GC/G FF ~ ~ C/GC/G
That Timmy and I would go straight off to bed
CHORUS:
It's Christmas
We'll put up the holly and mistletoe (it's Christmas)
G+G
See the soft coloured lights through the falling snow
C/GC/G
Cards to be sent, carols to be sung
G+G C/GC/G FF C/GC/G DmDm G+G
It's Christmas
C/GC/G
Then we'd get up early and run down the hall
FF C/GC/G Dm7Dm7 G+G
To wake up our parents, and then we would all
C/GC/G
Still in our pyjamas, pass the gifts out
FF C/GC/G FF ~ ~ C/GC/G
While wrappings and ribbons were thrown all about
CHORUS:
It's Christmas
We'll put up the holly and mistletoe (it's Christmas)
G+G
See the soft coloured lights through the falling snow
C/GC/G
Cards to be sent, carols to be sung
G+G C/GC/G
It's Christmas
CHORUS:
It's Christmas
We'll put up the holly and mistletoe (it's Christmas)
G+G
See the soft coloured lights through the falling snow
C/GC/G
Cards to be sent, carols to be sung
G+G C/GC/G FF C/GC/G DmDm G+G
It's Christmas
CHORUS:
C/GC/G
It's Christmas
We'll put up the holly and mistletoe (it's Christmas)
G+G
See the soft coloured lights through the falling snow
C/GC/G
Cards to be sent, carols to be sung
G+G C/GC/G
