INTRO: D A D

#1.
D                       G                D
These city streets seem cold and hard to me.
G                D         A7
Life here in the fast lane ain't my cup of tea.
D                  G              D
I can't get in the spirit here it seems.
           G              D       A7
And when I go to sleep at night I often have
     D     D7
this dream.

CHORUS:
      G             A7             D
Of an old fashioned Christmas with presents
A7        D
round the tree.
  Bm          E7          G               A7
A fire softly burning and you up close to me.
     G                  A7             D
With friends and family stopping by to help us
A7        D
share the cheer.
       G             D                 A7
For an old fashioned Christmas I'll be comin'
          D
home this year.


INTERLUDE: D G D A D

#2.
                    G             D
The city lights are fading out of sight.
    G              D       A7
The snow is softly fallin' through the winter

night.
D           G              D
Comin' home again feels so good.
    G          D         A7
And once again Christmas feels just like it
D     D7
should.

CHORUS:
              G             A7             D
Let's have an old fashioned Christmas with presents
A7        D
round the tree.
  Bm          E7          G               A7
A fire softly burning and you up close to me.
     G                  A7             D
With friends and family stopping by to help us
A7        D
share the cheer.
       G             D                 A7
For an old fashioned Christmas I'll be comin'
          D
home this year.

OUTRO:
              G             D
Let's have an old fashioned Christmas, I'll be
A                D
comin' home this year.
