              C                 G     G7        F# 
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, 
F                            C  
Just like the ones I used to know. 
C                     C7 
Where those tree-tops glisten, 
   F         Fm 
And children listen 
C                    G  Am  G    G7  
To hear sleigh bells in the snow. 
 
C                 G     G7       F# 
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, 
F                           C 
With every Christmas card I write, 
C                 C7        F     Fm 
"May your days be merry and bright, 
        C        G              C 
And may all your Christmases be white". 
 
C                       G     G7        F# 
Well, I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, 
F                            C 
Just like the ones I used to know. 
C                       C7                F 
May your days, may your days be merry and bright, 
            Fm 
Oh so bright, 
C                 G              F 
And may all your Christmases be white, 
   B             C  
So white, white Christmas 
               F 
They got to be white 
   B             C 
So white, white Christmas 
 
You know I'm dreaming of you
