C F
There's a magic light in the stars tonight
G7 C
It shines with a wondrous glow
F
There's a whisper of love in the silence of
D7 G7
Gently falling snow
F
There's cookies and milk on the table
G7 C
Ribbons on bright candy canes
F
And every child who is able
D7 G7
Has their nose to the window pane
Am F
Cause for only one night of the year
G7 C
You can see flying reindeer
Am F
And if you believe in Christmas Eve
G7 Am
There's no telling who will appear
F
With his whiskers and pipe
G7 C
He comes only one night of the year
F
It's the sugar plum world of cinnamon swirls
G7 C
A hint of pinewood in the air
F
As the church bell chimes I count twelve times
D7 G7
And slip into my easy chair
F
To watch the fire die to an ember
G7 C
And drift into a winter dream
F
Of a magical night in December
D7 G7
And faith in a sight unseen
Repeat #3 And for...
Am F
Ummmm if you believe in Christmas Eve
G7 Am
Raise a glass of good cheer
F
Cause wish as we might
G7 C
It comes only one night of the year
