Intro: C/G 
                       

I can remember back when we were small 
F              C/G          Dm7          G 
We would start counting the days 'til it all 
        C/G 
Would begin once again, the most magic of times 
     F          C/G         F  ~    ~    C/G 
That started us dreaming of wonders we'd find 


  
Then down from the attic, our father would bring 
F        C/G        Dm7        G 
Boxes of ornaments, tinsel and things 
     C/G 
Like old family treasures, a wreath for the door 
       F           C/G        F    ~    ~ C/G 
It was almost like we'd never seen them before 


Chorus: 

It's Christmas 

We'll put up the holly and mistletoe (it's Christmas) 
                      G  
See the soft coloured lights through the falling snow 
C/G 
Cards to be sent, carols to be sung 
         G C/G  F  C/G  Dm  G 
It's Christmas 


     C/G 
With each passing day, the excitement would rise 
     F          C/G         Dm7         G 
When no one was looking, my brother and I 
      C/G 
Would peek at the presents, wrapped so prettily 
    F         C/G           F ~   ~   C/G 
And carefully put them back under the tree 


  
When Christmas Eve came, we could finally say 
     F             C/G     Dm7        G 
That morning would only be one sleep away 
     C/G 
We were so excited by what lay ahead 
     F         C/G        F        ~   ~  C/G 
That Timmy and I would go straight off to bed 


Chorus: 

It's Christmas 

We'll put up the holly and mistletoe (it's Christmas) 
                      G  
See the soft coloured lights through the falling snow 
C/G 
Cards to be sent, carols to be sung 
         G C/G  F  C/G  Dm  G 
It's Christmas   


     C/G 
Then we'd get up early and run down the hall 
   F           C/G          Dm7           G 
To wake up our parents, and then we would all 
      C/G 
Still in our pyjamas, pass the gifts out 
      F             C/G          F      ~   ~ C/G 
While wrappings and ribbons were thrown all about 


Chorus: 

It's Christmas 

We'll put up the holly and mistletoe (it's Christmas) 
                      G  
See the soft coloured lights through the falling snow 
C/G 
Cards to be sent, carols to be sung 
         G C/G 
It's Christmas 


Chorus: 

It's Christmas 

We'll put up the holly and mistletoe (it's Christmas) 
                      G  
See the soft coloured lights through the falling snow 
C/G 
Cards to be sent, carols to be sung 
         G C/G  F  C/G  Dm  G 
It's Christmas 


Chorus: 
     C/G 
It's Christmas 

We'll put up the holly and mistletoe (it's Christmas) 
                      G  
See the soft coloured lights through the falling snow 
C/G 
Cards to be sent, carols to be sung 
         G C/G
