[Verse]
G F C
Mama used to send us early to bed on Christmas Eve
G F C
She became Santa's helper and they took care of me
G F C
We would wake up early from our beds only to see
F G
The love she had for all of us was left beneath the tree
[Chorus]
F G
One day I know we'll be together
C
When the Lord brings me to you
F G
Then I know, I will be in Heaven
C
When my eyes can rest on you
F G
But until then I will remember
Am G F
All the good times that we've shared
G
I'll hang a star upon this tree for you
F G C
On Christmas Day I know you'll be there too
[Verse]
G F C
Now that I am all grown up with children of my own
G F C
I see the happiness in their eyes, somehow I wish I'd known
G F C
But not a Christmas Day goes by, that I will not see
F G
The gift you gave to all of us was the love you gave to me
[Chorus]
F G
One day I know we'll be together
C
When the Lord brings me to you
F G
Then I know I will be in Heaven
C
When my eyes can rest on you
F G
But until then I will remember
Am G F
All the good times that we shared
G
I'll hang a star upon this tree for you
F G C
Mama, on Christmas Day I know you'll be there too
F G C
One day I know we'll be together
F G C F C
Then I know I will be in Heaven
F G
I won't have to remember
Am G F
'Cause I'm standing there with you
G
Of a time that you and I always knew
F G C
Mama, on Christmas Day I'll finally be with you
