Mommy look old Santa is crying
C G
Just a while ago he was smiling from ear to ear
C G
Until I told him all that I wanted
C D7 G
Was my daddy home for Christmas this year
D7
I forced a smile and tried my best to look jolly
G
Just the way old Santa should be
G7 C
For my disguise had completely fooled his mommy
D7 G
And my son didn't recognize me
D7 G
Just one year ago we were such a happy family
D7 G
I can still see that look on his face
D7 G
As he opened his presents and candy
A7 D7
Why there was love all over the place
G D7
There sitting on my knee is my whole world
G
I can't believe that I let him down
G7 C
He hugged my neck and then he turned to his mommy
D7 G
And though they’re gone I can still hear this sound
Repeat #1
