[Intro] G G C C Am C [Verse 1]
   G
As fall rides off in the sunset
I sweep the snow from my doorstep
  C
I just can't help but stop and grin
It's like I'm ten years old again
Am
And everywhere I go I can feel it

C
Some say it moves like a spirit

G
It falls on us once a year
like it came on a midnight clear [Pre-Chorus]
Em                 C              G
It's all love, the season is a gift

               D
When love came down to let us live

Em          C             G
Let's open up and let our hearts embrace this moment
[Chorus]
    G
For Christmas this year, we're gonna make a sound,

                       C
gonna make it loud for Christmas this year
We're gonna make some noise, let the world rejoice
    Am                       C                             G
For Christmas this year, for Christmas, for Christmas this year
[Verse 2] N.C. The laughter starts before the sunrise
  G
I sneak downstairs to sparklin' eyes

     C
And, oh what joy it brings to me
Our family around our Christmas tree
Am
And I thank the Lord for His favor

C
As we sing the songs of the Savior

G
Our Savior
[Pre-Chorus]
Em                 C              G
It's all love, the season is a gift

               D
When love came down to let us live

Em          C             G
Let's open up and let our hearts embrace this moment
[Chorus]
    G
For Christmas this year, we're gonna make a sound,

                       C
gonna make it loud for Christmas this year
We're gonna make some noise, let the world rejoice
    Am                       C                             G
For Christmas this year, for Christmas, for Christmas this year
[Bridge]
Em            D
Holy, Holy, Holy

Em                D
God is coming near

Em        D
Unto us a Savior's born

C             G
On a midnight clear

Em            D
Holy, Holy, Holy

Em                D
God is coming near

Em                     D
Unto us a Savior's born

              G
On a midnight clear
Oh... [Chorus]
    G
For Christmas this year, we're gonna make a sound,

                       C
gonna make it loud for Christmas this year
We're gonna make some noise, let the world rejoice
    Am                       C                             G
For Christmas this year, for Christmas, for Christmas this year
