[Verse]
Em
The colder it gets outside
F
The more it warms my soul
G
Christmas is on my mind
Am
I just gotta make it home
Em
It won't be long till I am singing
F
To the rhythm of the Salvation Army bell ringing
G
But this road keeps going for miles and miles
Am
Oh please get me there on time
[Chorus]
C G
Hold on Christmas
Am
I'm begging you please
C G
Hold on Christmas
Am
Christmas wait for me
Em F G Am
For me
[Verse]
Em
Tell Santa to take his time
F
Don't be in such a rush
G
Just give me a chance
Am
So I can get there before he does
Em
I gotta see my baby and hold her hand
F
While we're watching It's A Wonderful Life again
G
It'?s the only present I need right now
Am
So please could you help me out
[Chorus]
C G
Hold on Christmas
Am
I'm begging you please
C G
Hold on Christmas
Am
Christmas wait for me
Em F G Am
For me
[Bridge]
G
Gifts beneath the tree
C
Kids pretend to sleep
G
It's finally Christmas Eve
C
So keep the fire bright
G
Don't turn out the light
C
I'll be home tonight
[Chorus]
C G
Hold on Christmas
Am
I'm begging you please
C G
Hold on Christmas
Am
Christmas wait for me
C G
Hold on Christmas
Am
I'm begging you please
C G
Hold on Christmas
Am Em F G Am
Christmas wait for me
Am Em F G Am
Christmas wait for me
Am Em F G Am
Christmas wait for me
N.C.
For me
