[Bb]
He made [Cm] the night a [Ab] little [Eb] brighter [G] wherever he would [Eb]
go.
[Ab] Behold that [Eb] glider, how [G]
long, long [Bb] ago,
[Eb] His snowy tail was so much whiter beneath [G] the candle [Cm] glow.
[Eb]
[Ab] Behold that [Eb]
[Bb] glider, how long, long [Eb] ago,
The beautiful patter of his feet as he came toddling down the street.
His smile would hide a lonely heart to see.
If there [Fm] were sweethearts in [Db] the park he'd pass [Fm] the lamp and leave it dark.
Remembering the days that used [Bb] to be.
For he [Eb] recalls when dreams were dim, he loves someone who loves him too.
Who walks with him [Bb] along in [Eb] memory.
He made the [Bb] night a little [Eb] brighter [G] wherever he would [Cm] go.
[Eb] [Ab]
Behold that [Eb] glider, how [Bb] long, [Eb]
long ago,
If you look up in the sky you'll see the stars are tighter all the time.
He turns [Fm] them on when night is here and turns them off when dawn is near.
The little man will
[Bb] remain [Eb] an idol wherever [G] he would [Cm] go.
[Eb] [Ab] Behold that glider, how long, long ago,
[Eb] [Bb] [Eb]
