Christmas Long Ago

G
There used to be a Christmas tree
       C
In the center of the square
    D                  D7
And it was strung with Christmas lights
                     G
And laced with angel hair
                                  C
All the windows of the shops were decorated bright
D                                         G    C
Shoppers rushing everywhere for a gift so right

D
Little kids are making snowmen
                    G
In their neighbor's yards
A                  A7
Christmas carolers singing
     D             D7
In A Manger He Was Born
G
Lover's strolling hand in hand
   C
On streets of winter snow
D
That's the way it used to be
                G
Christmas long ago

             C                   G
I still love Christmas I love it so
           A7                 D    D7
The way it used to be so long ago
     C
With Christmas plays and mistletoe
G            Em
Caroling and big red bows
     D        D7       G   C  G   D
It's Christmas   long ago

   G
It used to be on Christmas Eve
    C
I'd listen from my bed
D
For the sound of sleigh bells
                 G
And reindeer overhead
G
I always seemed to fall asleep
   C
No matter how I tried
    D     D7
But in my dreams old Santa came
                  G    C
And took me for a ride

    D
The next thing I knew
           G
My mom and dad were at my door
A      A7
Saying,  “Merry Christmas “
         D
It's the day you've waited for
  G
A single star above our tree
  C
I still can see it’s glow
D
That's the way it used to be
                G   C
Christmas long ago

    D
And that's the way it used to be
                G   C   G
Christmas long ago
