  			G   G6   C      Am     Am7     Dm7        G7 
Frosted window panes, candles gleaming inside, 
         C7M  C7/9+         Dm7   G7 
Painted candy canes on the tree; 
        C       Am        Dm7        G7 
Santa's on his way, he's filled his sleigh 
       C7M  Am           Dm7         G7 
With things,  things for you and for me. 
G    G6   C       Am   Am7      Dm7             G7 
It's that time of year when the world falls in love; 
      C7M     C7/9+          Dm7   G7 
Ev'ry song you hear seems to say, 
       C9      Am         Dm7       G7         Gdim  A7 
"Merry Christmas!  May your New Year dreams come true." 
          Dm7          G7           C7M         Am7 
And this song of mine in three-quarter time 
       Dm7      G7            Dm7     G6     C 
Wishes you and yours the same thing, too.
