  			Intro: A 

A 
Well, on Queen Street they're all laughing 
            Bm     
And they're piling the boxes up high 
        A                               
But the sidewalk looks like ashes 
         D                        A    
From the cars that are passing us by 

A 
There is water on your lashes 
        Bm                               
Must be more than just snow in your eyes 
        A                           
While I tie a bright red sash around 
      D                          A           
Your shoulders, and that will be fine 
                 E    ***                   
'Cause you are a gift

You are a gift 
A         E    *** 
You are a gift 
D         A 
You are a gift 

A 
Well, if trees could be a warning 
           Bm                            
Then I'd know where my collar should hide 
      A                    
And I know tomorrow morning 
     D                         A 
Just exactly whose heart isn't fine 

A 
It's a silent night 
             Bm           
But I cannot tell if it's truly divine 
              A                         
Bells will be ringing, but I would be blind to them 
                D                           A       E    *** 
Outside they're singing, but I don't pay no mind to them 

D              A 
When you are a gift 
A         E    *** 
You are a gift 
D         A 
You are a gift
