Intro: A  E  F#  C# 
 
Verso 1:
 
               A     Amaj7              A7 
Bells will be ringing     the sad, sad news 
            D7                  Ebdim7 
Oh what a Christmas to have the blues 
           A   D             A    A/G#  F#m7 
My baby's gone   I have no friends 
            B7              E7   E 
To wish me greetings once again 
 
Verso 2: 
 
Crowds will be singing Silent Night 
Christmas carols by candlelight 
Please come home for Christmas, please come home for Christmas 
            B7       E7                A     A7 
If not for Christmas,   by New Year's night 
 
Ponte: 
 
               D               Dm 
Friends and relations send salutations 
A            E+           A    A7 
Sure as the stars shine above 
               D                      Dm 
But this is Christmas, yes, Christmas my dear 
            B7/Eb                         E    
The time of year to be with the one you love 
 
Verse 3:
 
So won't you tell me you'll never more roam 
Christmas and New Year's will find you home 
                     A    C#7              F#m7 F#m/E D Ebdim7 
There'll be no more sorrow,    no grief and pain 
             A    F#m7     B7     E7    A 
And I'll be happy,    1: happy once again 
                      2: Christmas 
 
Outro: 
           A   D     A   A E F# C#   (single notes on piano) 
    ...again
