It must be Christmas (It must be Christmas)
           B
It must be Christmas (It must be Christmas)
           G#                              A
It must be Christmas (It must be Christmas time)

[Verse]
    E
You know what always happens to me around this time of year?
G#                                          C#
The season starts to change, the memories appear
             B
And I wanna smile
   E
I think about all of the things that my family did
G#                                  C#
And how amazing it was just to be a kid
              B
For a little while

[Instrumental]

E G# C# B

[Verse]
E
Cookie cutters with mom, dad's playing guitar
G#                                C#
Grandpa's on the porch smoking a cigar
                     B
A fireplace full of fire
           E
I get the same warm feeling inside when I close my eyes
G#                                   C#
So many loved and lost but to my surprise
                   B
I still find them here

[Chorus]
           E
It must be Christmas (It must be Christmas)
           B
It must be Christmas (It must be Christmas)
           G#                              A
It must be Christmas (It must be Christmas time)

[Verse]
E
All the house is aglow, Christmas lights in the tree
G#                                            C#
See the snow falling down, hear the carolers sing
         B
O, Holy night
             E
What used to be about presents is now about gifts
        G#
Growing up I never thought that I would feel like this
       E
About family and kids and the simple things
          G#
And yes I miss those days and it's a crying shame
            E
That I will never taste Grandma's apple pie again
        G#
But I'm thankful that I did and I'm surrounded by friends
         E
And I'm proud of myself for the man I've become
             G#                                                 C#
I learned to love, I learned to be loved and I learned that I'm home
          B
When I'm home

[Chorus]
           E
It must be Christmas (It must be Christmas)
           B
It must be Christmas (It must be Christmas)
           G#                              A
It must be Christmas (It must be Christmas time)

[Chorus]
           E
It must be Christmas (It must be Christmas)
           B
It must be Christmas (It must be Christmas)
           G#                              A
It must be Christmas (It must be Christmas time)
