Verse 1:
G It’s the news that no one hopes for, Em Every parent's greatest fear C Finding out the child you love so much G Might not make it through the year G Now the thought of spending Christmas Em Without him just feels wrong C They’ve been praying for a miracle, G Now they're praying he can just hold on
Chorus:
C2 Em For one last Christmas, one last time, C2 D One last season when the world is right, Em One more telling of the story, D Em One more verse of Silent Night, C2 D They’d give anything so he could have G One last Christmas.
Verse 2:
G Middle of September Em Still seventy degrees C2 Daddy climbs up in the attic
Brings down candles
G Hangs the lights on all the trees, G Then the neighbors started asking Em And pretty soon word got around C2 First it was the neighborhood, G Before too long they lit up that whole town.
Chorus:
C2 Em For one last Christmas, one last time, C2 D One last season when the world is right, Em One more telling of the story, D Em One more verse of Silent Night, C2 D They’d give anything so he could have G One last Christmas.
Verse 3:
G Twenty-seventh of October, Em His time was wearing thin C2 Friends and family, even strangers G That they didn’t know brought presents in G He was weak but he was smiling Em Like there was nothing even wrong C2 They said he wouldn’t make it, G Looks like he got to see it after all
Chorus:
C2 Em One last Christmas, one last time, C2 D One last season when the world is right, Em One more telling of the story, D Em One more verse of Silent Night, C2 D They’d give anything so he could have G One last Christmas.
