1. All I Want for Christmas is You (Mariah Carey)


-2// -3// 4 5 -5 5 -4 4

I don't want a lot for Christmas

6 -5 -5 5 -5 5 -4 4

There is just one thing I ne-ed

-3/ -4 -5 6 -6 6 -5 -4

I don't care about the presents

-6 7 -6 -5 6 -5 -4 -4/

Underneath the Christmas tre-ee

-5 6 5 -5 -4 5 -4 -4/

I just want you for my own

-6 6 -5 5 -4 5 -4 -4/

More than you could ever kno-ow

4 -5 -6 7 6* -6

Make my wish come tru-ue

-6 6 -5 -4 4 6 -6 6 -5

All I want for Christmas is yo-ou


2. Blue Christmas (Elvis Presley)


6 7 -8 8 8 -8 -7 -7 -8

I'll have a Blue Christmas without you

6 -7 -8 -9 -9 -9 8 -8 7 8

I'll be so blue just thinking about you

8 -9 9 -9 8 9 -9 8 -8 -8 8 -9

Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree

8 -8 7 8 -8 -3 -3 -3 4 -4/ -4

Won't be the same dear, if you're not here with me


6 7 -8 8 8 -8 -7 -7 -8

And when those blue snowflakes start falling

6 -7 -8 -9 -9 8 -8 7 8

That's when those blue memories start calling

8 -9 9 -9 8 9 -9 8 -8 8 -9 -10

You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white

-6 6 -7 7 -8 8 8 8 -8 7

But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas


(Instrumental section)


8 -9 9 -9 8 9 -9 8 -8 8 -9 -10

You'll be doin' all right, with your Christmas of white

-6 6 -7 7 -8 8 9 8 -8 7

But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas


3. Do They Know It’s Christmas? (Band Aid)


4 4 -6 -6 -6 6 -6 -5 6 6 6 -6

It's Christmas time, there's no need to be a-fra-aid

4 4 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 6 -5 -5 6 6 6 -6

At Christmas time, we let in light and we banish sh-ade

6 -6 7 -8 7 8 -8 7 6 6 7 7 -8 7 -6

And in our world of plen-t-y we can spread a smile of joy

-6 7 -8 7 7 -8 8 6 8 8 -8 7

Throw your arms around the world at Christmas ti-me

5 -4 4 4 -4 -4 4 -4 5 5 (5 -4 4)

But say a prayer, pray for the other ones

4 4 -4 4 4 4 -4 -4 4 -4 5 5

At Christmas time it's hard, but when you're having fun

8 -8 7 7 7 -8 -7 -6 6

There's a world outside your windo-w

7 7 7 7 -8 7 6 -6

And it's a world of dread and fear

7 7 7 7 7 -8 -7 -6 6

Where the only water flow-i--ng

7 7 7 -8 7 6 -6

Is the bitter sting of tears

7 7 7 7 7 7 -7 -6 6

And the Christmas bells that ring the-re

7 7 7 -8 7 6 -6

Are the clanging chimes of doom

-9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -8 8 -9 8 8

Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you

7 7 7 7 7 7 -7 -6 6 -6 -6 6 6

And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time

7 7 7 7 -8 -7 -6 6 -6 6 (8 -8 7)

The greatest gift they'll get this year is life (oh-oh-oh)

7 7 7 7 -8 -7

Where nothing ever grows

7 7 -8 7 6 -6

No rain nor rivers flow

-9 8 7 6 -9 8 7 -8 7

Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

8 8 8 -8 7 -8 8 -8 7 -7

Here's to you, raise a glass for everyone

8 8 8 -8 7 -8 8 -8 7 -7

Here's to them, underneath that burning sun

-9 8 7 6 -9 8 7 -8 7

Do they know it's Christmas time at all?


6 4 -5 5 4

Feed the wo-r-ld

-6 6 -5 5 -5 5 -4 4 4

Let them know it's Christmas time again


4. Driving Home for Christmas


6 8 -8 -8 7 -8 6

I'm driving home for Christmas

6 -6 7 8 -8 -8 7 -8 -6

Oh, I can't wait to see those faces

8 -8 -8 7 -8 8 6

Driving home for Christmas, yeah

-6 -6 7 7 -8 -6 -6

Well I'm moving down that line

5 -5 6 -8 7

And it's been so long

8 8 -8 7 -8

But I will be there

-8 -8 6 7

I sing this song

8 8 -8 -8 7 -8

To pass the time away

8 -8 7 -7 -6

Driving in my car

7 7 7 -6 7 6

Driving home for Christmas

With a corn-cob pipe and a but-ton nose

5 -6 6 -5 5 -4 6

And two eyes made out of coal


6 5 -5 6 7

Frost-y the snow-man

-7 7 -8 7 -7 -6 6

Is a fair-y tale they say

-7 7 -8 7 -7 -6 -6 6 7 5

He was made of snow but the child-ren know

5 -6 6 -5 5 -4 4

How he came to life one day


6 -6 -6 7 7 -7 -6 6

There must have been some mag-ic in

5 -5 -6 6 -5 5

That old silk hat they found

4 -4 -4 6 6 -7 -7 -8

For when they placed it on his head

-7 7 -8 7 -7 -6 6

He be-gan to dance a-round


6 6 5 -5 6 7 -7 7 -8 7 -7 -6 6

Oh, Frost-y the snow-man was a-live as he could be

-7 7 -8 7 -7 -6 -6 6 7 5

And the child-ren say he could laugh and play

5 -6 6 -5 5 -4 4

Just the same as you and me

23. Walking in the Air (from ‘The Snowman’)


5 -6 -6 6 6 5

We're walking in the air

5 -6 -6 6 6 5 4 -4

We're floating in the moonlit sky

-4 -5 -5 5 5 -4

The people far below

-3// 4 4 -3 -3 -3//

Are sleeping as we fly


5 -6 -6 6 6 5

I'm holding very tight

5 -6 -6 6 6 5 4 -4

I'm riding in the midnight blue

-4 -5 -5 5 5 -4

I'm finding I can fly

-3// 4 4 -3 -3 -3//

So high above with you


-6 -6 6 6 5

On across the world

5 -6 -6 6 6 5 4 -4

The villages go by like dreams

-4 -5 -5 5 5 -4

The rivers and the hills

-3// 4 4 -3 -3 -3//

The forests and the streams


-3/// -3// -3 4 -4 5

Children gaze, open mouthed

5* 6 -6 5* -4

Taken by surprise

-3/ 4 -4 5 -5 6 5 -6 -6/ 5

Nobody down below believes their eyes


5 -6 -6 6 6 5

We're surfing in the air

5 -6 -6 6 6 5 4 -4

We're swimming in the frozen sky

-4 -5 -5 5 5 -4

We're drifting over ice-

-3// 4 4 -3 -3 -3//

-y mountains floating by


-3/// -3// -3 4 -4 5

Suddenly swooping low

5* 6 -6 5* -4

On an ocean deep

-3/ 4 -4 -3/ 5 -5 6 5 -6 -6/ 5

Rousing up a mighty monster from his sleep


5 -6 -6 6 6 5

We're walking in the air

5 -6 -6 6 6 5 4 -4

We're dancing in the midnight sky

-4 -5 -5 5 5 -4

And everyone who sees

-3// 4 4 -3 -3 -3//

Us greets us as we fly


24. White Christmas


5 -5 5 4* 5 -5 5* 6

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas

-6 -7 7 -8 7 -7 -6 6

Just like the ones I used to know

4 -4 5 5 5 -6

Where the treetops glisten

6 4 4 4 6

and children listen

-5 5 -5 5 -4 4 -4

To hear sleigh bells in the snow


5 -5 5 4* 5 -5 5* 6

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas

-6 -7 7 -8 7 -7 -6 6

With every Christmas card I write

4 -4 5 5 5 -6 6 7

May your days be merry and bright

4 -4 5 5 -6 -3 -3 -3 4

And may all your Christmases be white
