^{Key: :[F#] (w: Billy Squier)}

CHORUS:
[F#] Christmas is the [B] time to say "I [F#] love you"
[F#] Share the joys of [D#m] laughter and good [G#m] cheer
[B] Christmas is the [G#] time to say "I [F#] love you", [D#m] and a
[G#m] Feeling that will [C#] last all through the [F#] year

VERSE 1:
[F#] On the corner [B] carolers are [F#] singing
[F#] There's a touch of [D#m] magic in the [G#m] air
From [B] grownup to [G#] minor [F#] no one could be [D#m] finer
[G#m] Times are hard but no one seems to [C#] care

VERSE 2:
[F#] Christmas Eve and [B] all the world is [F#] watching
[F#] Santa guides his [D#m] reindeer through the [G#m] dark
From [B] rooftop to [G#] chimney, from [F#] Harlem to [D#m] Bimini
[G#m] They will find a [C#] way into your [F#] heart [B]

REPEAT CHORUS:

INSTRUMENTAL:
[F#] [B] [F#] [F#] // [F#] [B] [F#] [F#]
[B] [G#] [F#] [D#m] // [G#m] [C#] [F#] [B]

VERSE 3:
[F#] Just outside the [B] window snow is [F#] falling
But [F#] here beside the [D#m] fire we share the [G#m] glow
Of [B] moonlight and [G#] brandy, [F#] sweet talk and [D#m] candy
[G#m] Sentiments that everyone should [C#] know

VERSE 4:
[F#] Memories of the [B] year that lays be-[F#]-hind us
[F#] Wishes for the [D#m] year that's yet to [G#m] come
And [B] it stands to [G#] reason that [F#] good friends in [D#m] season
[G#m] Make you feel that [C#] life has just be-[F#]-gun

REPEAT CHORUS:

OUTRO:
So when [B] spirits grow [G#] lighter and [F#] hopes are shining [D#m] brighter
[G#m] Then you know that [C#] Christmas time is [B] here [F#]
