The Christmas Waltz

       C     A
Frosted windowpanes
        Dm         G
Candles gleaming inside
        C     A
Painted candy canes
       Dm    G
On the tree
        C      A
Santa's on his way
     Dm         G
He's filled his sleigh
     C        A
With things
           Dm          G
Things for you and for me
          C       A
It's that time of year
         Dm             G
When the world falls in love
      C        A
Every song you hear
         Dm       G
Seems to say
      C            A
Merry Christmas
         Dm         G
May your new year's dreams
     Em       A
Come true

         Dm      G
And this song of mine
         C             A
In three quarter time
     Dm                G          C
Wish you and yours the same thing too
          C       A
It's that time of year
         Dm             G
When the world falls in love
      C        A
Every song you hear
         Dm      G
Seems to say
      C          A
Merry Christmas
         Dm         G
May your new year's dreams
     Em     A
Come true
         Dm      G
And this song of mine
         C       A
In three quarter time
       Dm                G          C
Wishes you and yours the same thing too

G   G6   C      Am     Am7     Dm7        G7
Frosted window panes, candles gleeming inside,
         Cm7  Cm7/6         Dm7   G7
Painted candy canes on the tree;
        C       Am        Dm7        G7
Santa's on his way, he's filled his sleigh
       Cm7  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;
      Cm7     Cm7/6          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           Cm7    Am7
And this song of mine in three-quarter time
       Dm7      G7        Dm7  G6     C
Wishes you and yours the same thing, too.
