Tonight
[Verse 1]
             Am*                   D           G
What kind of presents await for me   under the tree

      B7**       C                  Am7          G
Could there be a kiss up on the nose  under misletoe

          C                D              B7/D#  B7          Em
Whether a sock or fancy dress, it doesn't matter nonetheless

                     Am                  D
I'm glad that you're here... that you're near
[Verse 2]
             Am*               D                      G
What kind of memories  are in store? Will we make some more

   B7**       C                 Am7                 D            G
So how bout a joke for all the folks, "Knock-knock, Who's at the door?"

         C                D               B7/D#    B7        Em
What I'm trying to convey   is one simple message, I must say

                Am                      D
The season gets better..   When we're together
