Jim Reeves - Old Christmas Card guitar chord

G C G

There's an Old Christmas Card in an old dusty trunk

D7 G

And it brings back sweet mem'ries dear to me

G C G

'Tho it's faded and worn, it's as precious as the morn

D7 G

When I found it 'neath our first Christmas tree

Chorus:

D7 G

I thrill with every word, every line

A7 D7

Guess I'm always sentimental 'round this time

G C G

Pardon me if a tear falls among my Christmas cheer

D7 G

It's the mem'ry of an Old Christmas Card

(Recitation)

You know, I don't know why I get to feeling sentimental

about this time, every year

But every time I see a Christmas card,

I somehow can't help reminiscing

About the very first Christmas that you and I spent together

What a beautiful Christmas card you gave me that year

Why I know you must have looked through thousands of cards

To find that wonderful poem that still brings a tear to my eyes

Repeat chorus
