  			    C                    Dm 
    Somewhere in, in the distant night 
    G      C 
    I hear Christmas bells 
        Am                Dm              F 
    The gentle snow keeps falling down on people 
            C 
    Who are homeward bound 

    C                   Dm 
    That's the way it's always been 
        G            C 
    The circle never really never ends 
    Am                 Dm 
    Christmas seems to come and go 
    F                   C 
    Homes a place that I don't know 
    G                C 
    Holly leaves and Christmas trees 
    G                 C 
    It's that time of year 

    Am               Em 
    Lights aglow and mistletoe 
          F                            G 
    Don't mean a thing when you're not here 
    C                    Dm 
    As I walk, walk this lonely street 
        G               C 
    The sound of snow beneath my feet 
    Am                    Dm 
    I'll think of how how it used to be 
    G                C 
    Holly leaves and Christmas trees 
    G              C 
    Use to mean so much to me
