Do  you  remember  me, I sat  upon your  knee
 I wrote  to you  with childhood fantasies
 Well, I'm  all grown-up now  and still need help  somehow
 I'm not  a child  but my  heart still  can dream
 So here's  my lifelong wish,  my grown-up Christmas  list
 Not for  myself  but for  a world  in need
 No  more lives  torn apart
 That wars  would never start
 And time  would heal all hearts
And  everyone  would have a friend
 And right  would always win
 And love  would never e----nd
This is  my grown-up  Christmas  list
 As children we  believed  the grandest sight  to see
 Was something lovely  wrapped  beneath  our tree
 Well Heaven surely knows  that packages  and bows
 Can never  heal  a hurting  human  soul
What  is this illusion called the  innocence of youth
 Maybe only  in our blind  belief can we ever  find the truth
No  more lives  torn apart
 That wars  would never start
 And time  would heal all hearts
And  everyone  would have a friend
 And right  would always win
 And love  would never e--nd oh
This is  my grown-up  Christmas  list
This  is my only  life  long wish
This  is my grown-up  Christmas  list

[G]Do you[D/F#] remem[Em]ber me, I sa[D]t upon yo[C]ur knee
I w[C]rote to [G/B]you with c[Am]hildhood [Am7]fantasi[D]es
Well, I[G]'m all [D/F#]grown-up [Em]now and still need h[D]elp someh[C]ow
I'm n[C]ot a c[G/B]hild but [Am]my heart [Am7]still can d[D]ream

So h[G]ere's my [D/F#]lifelong [Em]wish, my grown-up Ch[D]ristmas l[C]ist
Not f[C]or mys[G/B]elf but [Am]for a wo[Am7]rld in [D]need

No[E] more liv[C#m]es torn apar[A]t
That w[B]ars would never s[Abm7]tart
And [C#m]time would heal all he[A]arts  [B]
[E]And every[C#m]one would have a f[A]riend
And r[B]ight would always [Abm7]win
And l[C#m]ove would [C#m7]never [C#m]e----[Eb]nd
[Abm7]This [C#m]is my g[A]rown-up C[B]hristmas l[E]ist [Esus4]       [E]

Well H[G]eaven [D/F#]surely [Em]knows that packag[D]es and b[C]ows
Can n[C]ever h[G/B]eal a h[Am]urting h[Am7]uman s[D]oul

[E]What is this illusion called t[A]he innocence of youth
Maybe [C#m]only in our b[F#7]lind belief can we [B]ever find the t[Esus4]ruth  [E]
