[Verse 1]
G Cadd9 Ten Christmases ago Em Gsus2 D/G How were we to know G Cadd9 That the cold would be freezing, the world would be white Em Gsus2 Cadd9 But no one is leaving presents tonight G Cadd9 Em Gsus2 D/G That word has been hushed, it's almost a joke G Cadd9 The idea of Christmas somewhere became dumb Em Gsus2 Cadd9 Now December is just another sad month
[Pre-Chorus]
F G But somewhere in winter misery F G People still dream secretly F G Of a time they used to know F G When people would smile at snow
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 There were sweeties and chocolates and toys and lights Em Gsus2 D/G Carrots and cookies for santa tonight G Cadd9 Hot chocolates and crackers and family smiles Em Gsus2 D/G Laughter with loved ones we hadn't seen in a while G Cadd9 Bad jokes and brandy and music and games Em Gsus2 D/G Watching old movies while the fireplace fades G Cadd9 Jumpers and cinnamon and glittery trees Em Gsus2 Cadd9 Oh, remember how good it could be Em Gsus2 Cadd9 Yeah, remember how good it could be
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9 So people plod on Em Gsus2 D/G With their every day lives G Cadd9 You might catch a glimpse if you're walking past a dump Em Gsus2 D/G The slight sparkle of tinsel, covered in mud G Cadd9 But some are sick of this grey, Em Gsus2 D/G They form a plan, they say G We'll bring back christmas Cadd9 We'll put on a show Em Gsus2 D/G Sure we'll be laughed at, but we all know
[Pre-Chorus]
F G But somewhere in winter misery F G We all still dream secretly F G Of a time we used to know F G When people would smile at snow
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 There were sweeties and chocolates and toys and lights Em Gsus2 D/G Carrots and cookies for santa tonight G Cadd9 Hot chocolates and crackers and family smiles Em Gsus2 D/G Laughter with loved ones we hadn't seen in a while G Cadd9 Bad jokes and brandy and music and games Em Gsus2 D/G Watching old movies while the fireplace fades G Cadd9 Jumpers and cinnamon and glittery trees Em Gsus2 Cadd9 Oh, remember how good it could be Em Gsus2 Cadd9 Yeah, remember how good it could be
[Verse 3]
G Cadd9 So they gathered all they could Em Gsus2 D/G It wasn't much but it would do G Cadd9 When the sun rose on Christmas and the snowy day begun Em Gsus2 Cadd9 For the first time in years carols were sung G Cadd9 Em Gsus2 D/G First people chuckled, then their eyes filled with tears G Cadd9 Soon the whole world was singing, church bells were ringing Em Gsus2 Cadd9 How have we missed out on all of these years?
[Pre-Chorus Variation]
F G Now somewhere in winter misery F G Old excitement makes people happy F G And now they all know F G That people will smile at snow
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 Cause there's sweeties and chocolates and toys and lights Em Gsus2 D/G Carrots and cookies for santa tonight G Cadd9 Hot chocolates and crackers and family smiles Em Gsus2 D/G Laughter with loved ones we hadn't seen in a while G Cadd9 Bad jokes and brandy and music and games Em Gsus2 D/G Watching old movies while the fireplace fades G Cadd9 Jumpers and cinnamon and glittery trees Em Gsus2 Cadd9 Oh, look how good it could be Em Gsus2 Cadd9 Yeah, look how good it could be
