Because Its Christmas

Intro: C / F / Am / G /

Verse 1
     C               F
The snow is falling again
    Am           G
It looks a wonderland
         C                 F                  Am       G
But I'm stuck in traffic behind all these red lights
      C              F
So I call you up and sigh
           Am               G
Cause I forgot the pumpkin pie
     C                        F                      Am        G
You say “it's all right we'll still have a wonderful night

Pre-Chorus
      F                  G               Am                       G/B
Just take your time and slow it down and let your heart hear the joyful sounds”

          Chorus: C / F / Am / G /
          Because it's Christmas
          Love is filling the air
          Because it's Christmas
          The thrill of hope is everywhere
          So let the music play
          And let your worry melt away
          Because it's Christmas

Verse 2
     C               F
Back home the fire's bright
        Am               G
And the tree is full of lights
        C                           F                  Am          G
But the family's coming and there's so much work to be done
        C             F
So you call me up and say
          Am             G
Could you hurry on your way
   C            F                       Am        G
I say “hold on, tonight will be so much fun



Pre-Chorus
     F                  G                  Am                       G/B
Just take a breath, and say a prayer and before you know it I'll be there”

          Chorus

Bridge
    F                G             F               G
And in this world so loud and busy sometimes we forget just why
   F              G                          F                G
We celebrate this time each year… but if you listen close the angels cry
     Am                   G/B
The whole world sings the reason why


Refrain: C / F / Am / G /
Because it's Christmas
Our savior's born tonight
Because it's Christmas…
