[Intro] Gsus2 Bm7 x4 [Verse]
        Gsus2                  Bm7
And the man who would be Santa slips into the room

        Gsus2                                  Bm7
And the hour of daylight's yet to come, but he hopes they don't wake too soon

        Gsus2                         Bm7
All the presents wrapped in paper and tied with a bow

    Gsus2                       Bm7
The children sleep upstairs and Santa works below

Gsus2         Bm7
              And he can hear the children dreaming

Oh......   la  la la, la la la

All I want is for you to have

Bm         F#m      Em7
A life you love and live

Bm        F#m      G       D
Take from me all I have to give

        Em7           Asus4
Because you are in my heart
[Break] Gsus2 Bm7 x2 [Verse]
        Gsus2                  Bm7
And the man who would be Santa tells his son to write

       Gsus2                           Bm7
And to call him if he needs him in the middle of the night

          Gsus2                          Bm7
Don't you worry don't you cry now you'll do just fine

     Gsus2                     Bm7
Your mother and I love you, we think about you all the time

Gsus2           Bm7
                And he can see the train is leaving

[Solo] Gsus2 Bm7 x4 Bm F#m G D Bm F#m Em7 Bm F#m G D Em7 Asus4 Gsus2 Bm7 x2 [Verse]
        Gsus2                     Bm7
Now the old man sits and tells of days when time stood still

    Gsus2                             Bm7
The hours always seem to fade but the memory never will

            Gsus2                              Bm7
And all the love that you gave me, and all the dreams in the night

    Gsus2                   Bm7                       Gsus2
And I just want to thank you... while the day's still light

Bm7
But I can see the sun is setting
