Christmas Is Near

Holly in the window the fireplace burning bright

G

Candle lights a glowing on a Christmas night

D7

I'll see the smiling faces once again this year

G

Waiting for me at the door Christmas time is near

D7

Out in the country about this time of year

G

Everybody's happy Christmas time is near

D7

Little children playing running to and fro

G

Santa Claus is coming riding on the snow

D7 G

I remember years ago when just a lad at home

A7 D7

How I longed for Christmas time and nothing could go wrong

G D7

Now today as I look back it seems like just a year

G

Going back to see 'em all Christmas time is near

D7 G

I can see the pine trees now swaying here and there

A7 D7

They seem to know it's Christmas time there's joy everywhere

G D7

Ice froze on the branches the water cool and clear

G

Snowflakes a falling Christmas time is near

D7

Out in the country about this time of year

G

Everybody's happy Christmas time is near
