[Verse 1]
A
There's music in the city
      D               A
And lights are on display
           D               A
There's a big ol tree for all to see
             B              E
Where the children run and play
A                      D                        A 
I look out my window somethin' just don't seem right
       D               A                      E               A
Til I said hello and heard her voice on the other end of the line

[Chorus]
A                                   D              A
Now it's Christmas, Christmas I'm hurrying' on my way
                                 B                     E
Christmas, Christmas, like I'm riding in a one horse sleigh
          A                                            D              B
Well, I don't have to hear no jingle bells, just the ringing of the phone
 A                              E              A
Mama called and said it's time for me come on home

[Verse 2]
A
The pies are in the oven
         D                A
You can almost taste the air
     D                A
It warms my heart to feel her love 
     B                  E
And know how much she cares
       A                               D                   A
It's funny how going back can get you back to where you belong
           D                         A             E                 A
It's the difference between just a melody and my favorite Christmas song

[Chorus]
A                                     D              A
Well, it's Christmas, Christmas I'm hurrying' on my way
                                 B                     E
Christmas, Christmas, like I'm riding in a one horse sleigh
         A                                             D              B
Well, I don't have to hear no jingle bells, just the ringing of the phone
 A                               E               A
Mama called and said "it's time for You come on home"
 A                                    E                A
Mama just called and said "it's time for you to come home"
