D                       G                D
These city streets seem cold and hard to me.

G                D         A7
Life here in the fast lane ain't my cup of tea.

D                  G              D
I can't get in the spirit here it seems.

           G              D       A7            
And when I go to sleep at night I often have 

     D     D7
this dream.
CHORUS:
      G             A7             D    
Of an old fashioned Christmas with presents 

A7        D
round the tree.

  Bm          E7          G               A7
A fire softly burning and you up close to me.

     G                  A7             D       
With friends and family stopping by to help us 

A7        D
share the cheer.

       G             D                 A7                       
For an old fashioned Christmas I'll be comin' 

          D
home this year.
INTERLUDE: D G D A D #2.
                    G             D
The city lights are fading out of sight.

    G              D       A7
The snow is softly fallin' through the winter 
night.
D           G              D
Comin' home again feels so good.

    G          D         A7                 
And once again Christmas feels just like it 

D     D7
should.
CHORUS:
              G             A7             D
Let's have an old fashioned Christmas with presents

A7        D
round the tree.

  Bm          E7          G               A7
A fire softly burning and you up close to me.

     G                  A7             D       
With friends and family stopping by to help us 

A7        D
share the cheer.

       G             D                 A7                       
For an old fashioned Christmas I'll be comin' 

          D
home this year.
