[Intro]
G D G D

[Verse 1]
            G            D             Em      C
I wanted to hold you and keep you with me this year
          G             D        G       D
You're my darling and I want you near
            G             B7       Em              C
I wanted to whisper these words of comfort in your ear
        G          D       G
No more sorrow and no more fear

[Chorus]
F#     B
Oh, my love
     Am      D
When will we know?
   F#     B
If we can meet
          Am    D
Under the mistletoe

[Verse 2]
              G          D            Em          C
I'm writing a song about Christmas in April this year
              G                  D                                  G       D
And you know, folks- I just don't- I don't know what to think about that
    G                        B7      Em              C
I'm hoping these words don't ring so hollow when you hear
              G             D         G       D
Me say "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year"

[Chorus]
F#       B
Fits and starts
  Am       D
Upset applecarts
   F#         B
Conspiring to keep
    Am       D
Us apart

[Verse 3]
               G            D             Em      C
I'm wanting to hold you and keep you with me this year
          G             D        G       D
You're my darling and I want you near
                 G           B7      Em              C
I'm hoping these words don't ring so hollow when you hear
              G             D         G       C
Me say "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year"
            G            D                  G       C
And may the autumn winds blow away all your fears
              G             D         C
I said "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year"
