A               F#m     D7+                E
 Wrote myself a letter,    I told myself a lie

A                      F#m       D7+                E
 That you'll be coming home soon    and then you'll [?]

A                F#m     D7+                E
 I read it every morning    since you went away

F#m                B7              D7+   E                    A  F#m D7+ E
   I'm living in a dream world and dying  a little more each day
[Verse]
A               F#m        D7+                E
 Wrote myself a love song,   believing every word

A                F#m       D7+                E
 Saying that you love me       in melodies unheard

   I'm living in a dream world and dying  a little more each day
[Instrumental] A F#m D7+ E [Verse]
D/F#
   Snow is on the sidewalk, it's cold inside my heart

C#m
   I look up and I wonder, have I lost my guiding star

D/F#                                E
    And everything is white outside,  how can it be so dark?
(Chords on this part are not so clear to me) [Outro]
Bb                Gm        Eb7+                        F
 Say a prayer and thank God    that your love is mine alone

Bb              Gm     Eb7+                           F
  And never be another     who could grace our happy home

Bb                Gm        Eb7+                     F
  Pray on Christmas morning that this time you will stay

Gm                    C7              Eb7+  F                    Gm C7
  But I'm living in a dream world and dying  a little more each day

        Eb7+
Yes I'm Dying

F                      Bb Gm Eb7+ F Bb Gm Eb7+ F Bb
 For love on Christmas day
