[Verse 1]
C                        C7
Christmas Day is getting closer
            F
But there's sadness mixed with joy
      G
Every day a few more questions
         C
From our little girl and boy
C
Not alone but they'll be lonely
          F
For their daddy won't be here
                         C
And just like the air at Christmas
              G              C
There'll be a chill upon the chill

[Chorus]
G
Christmas without daddy
        C
Will be such a lonesome day
      D7
We'll send a prayer and all our love
   G
To you so far away
     C
Your son just wrote to Santa
       F
Asking him to send you home
                       C
This Christmas without daddy
         G             C    C7
We'll be blue and all alone

[Solo]
|  F  |  C  |  G  |  C  |  C  |

[Chorus]
G
Christmas without daddy
             C
I don't know what we're gonna do
       D7
On the present from your baby
          G
She wrote daddy I love you
     C
Your son just wrote to Santa
       F
Asking him to send you home
                       C
This Christmas without daddy
         G             C
We'll be blue and all alone
