CHORUS:

         C#                       F#

What a merry Christmas this could be

    G#                         C#

If you would just come back to me

C#                           F#

And say that you'd forgiven me

         G#                       C#

What a merry Christmas this could be





C#                                    F#

It was just last Christmas that we quarreled and you walked out

    G#                             C#

I knew I was wrong but you'd come back I had no doubt

       C#                            F#

Now a year has rolled around it's Christmas once again

     G#                                 C#

And what I'd give if you'd come walking in



Chorus, lead, chorus, ending



ENDING:

        G#                        C#

What a merry Christmas this could be
