A#                  D#              
Comes the time for  
      F              Gm            
And I really have to ask 
   Gm              Cm               
If this is feeling merry 
         F              A#         
How much longer must it last? 
 
         A#              D#         
I wish a one horse open sleigh 
           F        Gm             
Would come carry me away 
              Gm               Cm   
But I've been waiting here all day 
             F              A#     
And one just hasn't come my way 
 
    A#                          D#  
Now excuse me if I'm not being reverent 
          F                       Gm 
But I was hoping for a miracle to hold me, wash me 
Gm              Cm                  
Save me from my righteous doubt  
     F                   A# 
as I watch helpless, and everybody sings 
 
        A#           D#             
If it's Chanukah or Kwanza 
F                       Gm           
Solstice, harvest or December twenty-fifth 
Gm                Cm               
Peace on earth to everyone 
    F            A#                
And abundance to everyone you're with 
    
A#             D#                
La ha da da da da da 
      F                 Gm          
Da da da da da da da da da da da 
Gm                Cm

      F                 A#

A#                  D#             
Comes the time for  
           F                   Gm  
And as you raise your Yuletide flask 
                  Gm               Cm 
There's like this feeling that you carry 
           F               A#      
As if from every  past 
                    
        A#               D# 
It's as if each year it grows 
              F               Gm                            
It's like you feel it in your toes 
    Gm             Cm                            
And on and on your carol goes 
           F               A#      
Harvesting love among your woes 
                 
          A#                D# 
I want to buy into the benevolent 
          F                       Gm 
And I was hoping for a miracle to hold me, wash me 
Gm                Cm                
Make me know what it's about 
       F             A#            
As the longing in me makes me want to sing 
       
A#       D#                   
Noel or Navidad 
F                     Gm           
Season celebration or just the end of the year 
Gm                 Cm               
 can mean anything 
      F                A#          
And I mean to keep its hope forever near 
 
  
Repeat la's.... 
 
        Gm                      F       Gm 
As if a cold and frozen soul is warm to love 
             A#                   
By loves own hand 
            Gm              F      
So goes the prayer if for a day peace on earth 
D#                F                
And good will to man 
  
          A#                         D# 
At twenty below the winter storm it billows 
        F               Gm      F        
But the fire is so warm inside 
        Gm                              Cm 
And the children while nestled in their pillows 
         F              A#         
Dream of St. Nicholas's ride 
 
  
            A#                                D# 
And how the next day they'll get up and they will play 
       F                       Gm   F 
In the still falling  snow 
    Gm                          Cm          
And together we'll celebrate forever 
      F                       A#     F  
In defiance of the winds that blow 
 
          A#                          D# 
My god in heaven now I feel like I'm seven 
        F                     A#    F   
And the spirit calls to me as well 
      Gm                            Cm                               
As if  had made the winter warmer 
       F                      A#    F   
Made a paradise from what was hell 
                        
        Gm              F               Gm 
As if a cold and frozen soul is warm to love 
             A#                   
By loves own hand 
            Gm              F      
So goes the prayer if for a day peace on earth 
D#                F                           
And good will to man.......
