Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Christmastime  on a cold  December morning
All  is calm and the world  is still asleep
Christmas  lights that have been  caught without warning
Gently glitter  on
Stars  to wish  upon
All  the world  is at peace
Christmastime  and the year  will soon be leaving
Cloaked  in time till it’s just  a memory
Christmas  stays if we don’t  forget its meaning
Days  go quickly  by
Years  they multiply
 And we  go searching  for thee
 And the dream  is still alive
 From that first  December morning
 And it always  will survive
 As long  as we can see
 That the dreams  that we find  in life
 Are the dreams  we tend to seek
 And Christmas  has its promises  to keep
 Can Do Lead Solo Here In Verse Chord Progression.
 Then Come Back Into Chorus.into 3rd Verse softly After Chorus
Christmastime  and the moment’s  just beginning
From  that night when we wished  upon that star
 And if  this kindness we feel  is just pretending
 If we  pretend long  enough
Never  giving  up
 It just  might be  who we are
 End The Song However You Would Like. I Repeat Last Line With No Chords Then Come Back in
 With Intro To End It. This Is A Simple Version But Works Well. Enjoy!
