[Intro]
| (G) (Bm) (G) | (Em) (D) | x 2
[Verse 1]
G Bm
Mama's in the kitchen, Christmas on the stove
C Am D
Daddy's in the woodshed with axe and overcoat
G Bm
Everybody's helpin' to place and trim the tree
C Am D
The picture's almost perfect, it's only missin' me
[Chorus]
C D G B7 Em
But I'm comin' home for Christmas, save a place for me
C G Am D
I'll ar- rive before Saint Nicholas places gifts beneath the tree
C D G B7 Em D
Leave a candle burnin' and a key underneath the mat
C G Em C D
I'm comin' home for Christmas, you can count on the that
G Bm G Em D
Let it snow, ooh, ooh
G Bm G Em D
Let it snow
[Verse 2]
G Bm
Snow is gently fallin' as I make my way toward home
C Am D
I hear sweet memories callin' I've been a long time ago
G Bm
Nothin' like the family and friends to celebrate
C Am D
The fun, the food, the music of this special holiday
[Chorus]
C D G B7 Em
Oh, when I'm comin' home for Christmas, save a place for me
C G Am D
I'll ar- rive before Saint Nicholas places gifts beneath the tree
C D G B7 Em D
So leave the candle burnin' and a key underneath the mat
C G Em Am D G
I'm comin' home for Christmas, we can all depend on that
[Bridge]
F Dm Em Am Dm G C
Hang holly in the window, hang tinsle on the tree
G Em F#m Bm Em A D
Hang mistle- toe a- bove the door and hang your hopes on me
[Chorus]
C D G Em B G Em D
I'm comin' home for Christmas, no place I'd rather be
C G Em Am D E A
I'm comin' home for Christ- mas, you can count on me
C G Bm Em Am D G Bm
I'm comin' home for Christ- mas, you can count on... me
G Em D
Ooh, ooh, I'm comin' home
G Bm G Em D C G
I'm comin' home
