John Prine – Silver Bells (Guitar)

 A A  A                                D
City sidewalks busy sidewalks dressed in holiday style

      E                           A
In the air there's a feeling of  Christmas

                                D
Children laughing people passing meeting smile after smile

E                                   A
 And on every street corner you'll hear

            D
[tab]E                            A
 It's Christmas time in the city

E   A
     Ring-a-ling

D
 Hear them ring

E                 A
 Soon it will be Christmas  Day

                      D
Lights even stoplights blink of bright red and

              E                             A
Green as the shoppers rush home with their treasures

          A
Hear the snow crunch

                    D
See the kids bunch

                E
Santa's big day

                              A                              D        D     E
And above all else oh you'll hear all the little silver bells silver bells

                       A  E  A
Christmas time in the city

                D
A ring of light

           E
Hear them ring soon it will be
