 C       Em      F          G7
If I get home on Christmas day
C       Em        F          G7
I won't need soft words to say
      C           Em           Am      
I'll miss you and I can stay a while
F                                   G7
You'll see it in my eyes and when I smile

   C     Em          F      G7
If I get home before midnight
    C     Em           F        G7
While you're still sleeping tight
     C              Em                    Am
I ll take you in my arms and there you'll stay
   F             G7        C
If I get home on Christmas day

   C                 Em
Writing letters everyday
   Am
Never really seem to say
    F               G7               C
The way I feel deep in this heart of mine
    C                   Em
Though I'm half a world away
    Am
If we're patient and we pray
 F                                    G7
Know I'll get my chance with you this time

C        Em           F     G7
If I get home on Christmas day
  C     Em        F          G7
I won't need soft words to say
     C            Em           Am
I'll miss you and I can stay a while
   F                                   G7
You'll see it in my eyes and when I smile

  C      Em       F          G7
If I get home before midnight
   C         Em          F      G7
While you're still sleeping tight
  C                 Em                    Am
I'll take you in my arms and there you'll stay
   F             G7         C
If I get home on Christmas day
  C                 Em                    Am
I'll take you in my arms and there you'll stay
