AAmaj7A7 Bells will be ringing the sad, sad news

B7EE+ To wish me greetings once again
 Please come home for Christmas, please come home for Christmas
B7E7AA7 If not for Christmas, by New Year's night
DDm Friends and relations send salutations
AE+ AA7 Sure as the stars shine above

 Christmas and New Year's will find you home
