[Verse 1]
C#m E B
The season is on us when all our dreams come true
A E
And for a while the spirit of giving is renewed
C#m E B
And children wonder about the truth of things
A E
That they say at church or hear the angels sing
C#m E B
Our kids have two trees, one at each of our homes
A E
Yours with antique balls and mine with dime store globes
C#m E B
Their Christmas wish is as simple as it's clear
A E
Let their parents pride and anger disappear
[Chorus]
E B
So this year at Yuletide, here's how we'll do it
E A E
We'll put up one Christmas tree
E B
Then gather 'round it, sing hallelujah
A N.C. E
Peace on earth and to our family
[Break]

[Verse 2]
C#m E B
The kids swear they remember loving years before
A E
When they heard the neighbors caroling at our door
C#m E B
And mom and dad were both snuggled in one chair
A E
Watching wrapping paper flying everywhere
[Chorus]
E B
So this year at Yuletide, here's how we'll do it
E A E
We'll put up one Christmas tree
E B
Then gather 'round it, sing hallelujah
A N.C. E
Peace on earth and to our family
A E
And to our family
F#m A E
Peace on earth to our family
F#m A E
Peace on earth and to our family
