[Cm] [Gm]
[Ab] [Abm] Oh, [Eb] Johnny never got his wish December 25th.
[Bb] That's what he said when we left the [Ab] orphanage nine years old, but Johnny was an old soul
[B] gonna spend his first [Eb] Christmas in the real house.
Then he showed me a picture he made the night before a drawing of a man [Cm] standing outside the door.
[Ab] He said, I see him in my dream.
[B] He comforts me [Eb] when I can't sleep.
Father of the Father, let [Gm] me be with your sons and daughters [Ab] this Christmas.
[Abm] This Christmas.
[Eb] Believing angels, he asked staring in the [Bb] sky.
I said, I do a saw sparkling in his [Eb] eye.
Being brother for the weekend, responding through the [B] season.
It's a good chance [Eb] to give us better than receiving.
[Ab] Two nights, a new family, some [Eb] holiday cheer.
We laughed and sang, came on a midnight clear.
[Ab] We gave, received, and as we headed to a [B] close, we looked to the [Eb] heavens and it started snowing
Father of the Father, let [Gm] me be with your sons and daughters [Ab] this Christmas.
[Abm] This Christmas.
[Eb] Father, let us not forget [Gm] the children who are all alone [Ab] this Christmas.
[Abm] This Christmas.
[Cm] Religion that God our Father accepts as superior and thoughtless [F] is this, that we [Cm] look after
orphans [Eb] and widows and their [Cm] distress.
Merry [Abm] Christmas, everyone.
[Cm] [Gm]
[Ab] The Lord is [Abm] come.
[Cm] Let heaven and nature sing.
[Gm] Let heaven and nature sing.
[Ab] Let heaven and nature [Abm] sing.
[Eb] Big brother turned dad in a couple weeks.
[Bb] Some gifts give more than you could ever dream.
[Ab] He started out as a plan just to do my [B] part, but that little [A] man went and stole my [Eb] heart.
Father of the Father, let [Gm] me be with your sons and daughters [Ab] this Christmas.
[Abm] This Christmas.
[Eb] Father, let us [Gm] not forget the children who [Ab] are all alone this Christmas.
[Abm] This Christmas.
[Eb] [Gm]
[Ab] Let heaven and nature sing.
[Abm] Let heaven and nature sing.
[Eb] Let [Gm]
[Ab] heaven and nature sing.
[Abm] Let heaven and nature [Eb] sing.
