A CHRISTMAS FOR THE FAMILY(WITH LYRICS) = ENGELBERT HUMPERDINCK chords
Start Jamming...
Christmas comes but once a year,
When waiting now the time is near.
Everyone from far and [Db] wide
Will come and celebrate [Eb] this night.
When [Ab] the fireplace [Fm] is crackling
[Cm] And the snow [Fm] is on the [Bbm] ground,
We begin to [Eb] see the [Cm] joy and [Fm] smile
[Bbm] Of our loved ones all [Eb] around.
I [Ab] can hear the sleigh bells ringing
[Cm] In the distance [Fm] loud [Bbm] and clear.
There's a sound [Eb] like angels [Cm] singing,
[Fm] [Db] Santa must be very [Eb] near.
[Ab] What a jolly holiday,
[Db] We fill our hearts and sing,
[Eb] It's Christmas for [Fm] the [F] family.
[Ab] All we need is you and me
[Db] To sing around the tree,
[Eb] It's the best night of [Ab] the year.
[Bb] It's Christmas for [Eb] the ages,
[Bb] Come to celebrate [Eb] this night.
We [C] are joined by friends [F] and family
[C] In the glow of [F] candlelight.
[Eb] [Ab] What a jolly holiday,
[Db] We fill our hearts and sing,
[Eb] It's Christmas for [Ab] the [F] family.
[Ab] All we need is you and me
[Db] To sing around the tree,
[Eb] It's the best night of [Ab] the year.
The sound of laughter in the air,
[Db] The Christmas tree with gifts to spare,
The [Bbm] starry lights that [Eb] twinkle in [Ab] our eyes.
[Fm]
[Cm] [Ab] With generations old and young,
[Db] The children playing, having fun,
[Bbm] The greatest gift [Eb] is being here [Ab] as [Fm] one.
[Eb]
[Ab] What a jolly [Ab] holiday,
[Db] We fill our hearts and sing,
