CHRISTMAS TIME

Bryan Adams

                   C      Em           Am  C

We waited all through the year

             F            G

for the day to appear

          C           E7      Am Am7        G 

when we could be together  in harmony

         C             Em         Am    C

You know the time will come

                 F                     G

peace on earth for everyone

       C           E7       Am Am7    Dm                         G

and we can live forever   in a world where we are free

          Dm                       G

let it shine for you and me

                C                             

There's something about Christmas time

F                                     

something about Christmas time

C                                                                        G

that makes you wish it was Christmas everyday

       C                                             

To see the joy in the children's eyes

       F

the way that the old folks smile

C                                       G               C

says that Christmas will never go away

We're all as one tonight

makes no difference if you're black or white

'cause we can sing together in harmony

I know it's not too late

the world would be a better place

if we can keep the spirit more than one day in the year

send a message loud and clear

[Repeat Chorus:]



              G                                                  C

It's the time of year when everyone's together

          G                                             C

we'll celebrate here on Christmas day

                 Am    

when the ones you love are there

               D7                              G  F  

you can feel the magic in the air 

                        Em       G

you know it's everywhere



               C

There's something about Christmas time

F

something about Christmas time



(Shift the chords one tone higher:  D)



There's something about Christmas time

something about Christmas time

that makes you wish it was Christmas every day

To see the joy in the children's eyes

the way that the old folks smile

says that Christmas will never go away

[Repeat chorus]

Please tell me Christmas will never go away
