Well you wouldn’t believe the things that I’ve seen
F C
In a dream on Christmas Eve night
F C Am
A small country child that didn’t have much
D7 G7
Could dream up a big Christmas sight
C F C C7
We couldn’t afford nothing but love
F C
So I imagined the rest in my mind
F Fm
Have you ever been poor
C A7 D7 G7 C
And dreamed that your in Candyland at Christmas time
C7
I saw peppermint trees with lollypop leaves
F C
And jellybeans covered the ground
Am
Big chocolate drops stood for the mountain tops
D7 G7
And gingerbread men danced around
C C7
I went walking about the marshmallow house
F C
And the streets all had candy bar signs
F Fm
Have you ever been poor
C A7 D7 G7 C
And dreamed that your in Candyland at Christmas time
F Fm
Have you ever been poor
C A7 D7 G7 C
And dreamed that your in Candyland at Christmas time
