CHRISTMAS
by Blues Traveller
from "A Very Special Christmas III"
C F
Comes the time for Christmas
G Am
And I really have to ask
Am Dm
If this is feeling merry
G C
How much longer must it last?
C F
I wish a one horse open sleigh
G Am
Would come carry me away
Am Dm
But I've been waiting here all day
G C
And one just hasn't come my way
C F
Now excuse me if I'm not being reverent
G Am
But I was hoping for a miracle to hold me, wash me
Am Dm
Save me from my righteous doubt
G C
as I watch helpless, and everybody sings
C F
If it's Chanukah or Kwanza
G Am
Solstice, harvest or December twenty-fifth
Am Dm
Peace on earth to everyone
G C
And abundance to everyone you're with
C F
La ha da da da da da
G Am
Da da da da da da da da da da da
Am Dm
La da da da da da da da
G C
La da da da da da da da da
C Bb69
Laha da da da da
C Bb69
Laha da da da da
C F
Comes the time for Christmas
G Am
And as you raise your Yuletide flask
Am Dm
There's like this feeling that you carry
G C
As if from every Christmas past
C F
It's as if each year it grows
G Am
It's like you feel it in your toes
Am Dm
And on and on your carol goes
G C
Harvesting love among your woes
C F
I want to buy into the benevolent
G Am
And I was hoping for a miracle to hold me, wash me
Am Dm
Make me know what it's about
G C
As the longing in me makes me want to sing
C F
Noel or Navidad
G Am
Season celebration or just the end of the year
Am Dm
Christmas can mean anything
G C
And I mean to keep its hope forever near
Repeat la's....
Am G Am
As if a cold and frozen soul is warm to love
C
By loves own hand
Am G
So goes the prayer if for a day peace on earth
F G
And good will to man
C F
At twenty below the winter storm it billows
G Am G
But the fire is so warm inside
Am Dm
And the children while nestled in their pillows
G C
Dream of St. Nicholas's ride
C F
And how the next day they'll get up and they will play
G Am G
In the still falling Christmas snow
Am Dm
And together we'll celebrate forever
G C G
In defiance of the winds that blow
C F
My god in heaven now I feel like I'm seven
G C G
And the spirit calls to me as well
Am Dm
As if Christmas had made the winter warmer
G C G
Made a paradise from what was hell
Am G Am
As if a cold and frozen soul is warm to love
C
By loves own hand
Am G
So goes the prayer if for a day peace on earth
F G
And good will to man.......
