E F#m A E F#m A
Little boy six year old, sitting on his Grandpa's knee
E B F#m A E B F#m A
Little did he know it way back then, but he was makin' Christmas a memory
E B F#m A E B F#m A
Grandpa asked that little boy, "What does Christmas really mean to you?"
E B F#m A E B F#m A
And the boy talked of snow and stockings and toys all shiny and new
F#m A C#m B
Grandpa laughed and shook his head and said, "Let me tell you what it means to me"
F#m A B
And he held that little boy close as he pointed to the top of the Christmas tree he said
[Chorus]
A E
Don't forget the star this Christmas
A E
Don't forget the greatest gift of all
A B C#m
The One who came to shine away the dark
F#m A
Bringin' hope for every heart this Christmas
E B F#m
Don't forget the staaaaar
E B F#m A
Don't forget the star
[Verse 2]
E B F#m A E B F#m A
Little boys grow up too fast, and those mem'ries they sure do fade
E B F#m A E B F#m A
And that Christmas Eve with Grandpa seems about a million miles away
F#m A C#m
These days the bills are piling' up, and the world is weighing down
B F#m
He's got a little girl of his own, and he knows grown men don't cry
A B
But as that girl looks in his eyes, he remembers his Grandpa's song
[Chorus]
A E
Don't forget the star this Christmas
A E
Don't forget the greatest gift of all
A B C#m
The One who came to shine away the dark
F#m A
Bringin' hope for every heart this Christmas
C#m B E A F#m
Don't forget the star
[Verse 3] (mute strum)
E F#m A E B F#m A
It was shining' bright in the eastern sky, above a manger two thousand years ago
E F#m A E B F#m A
And it fills my heart with joy to realize that star still guidin' lost souls home
E B F#m A E B F#m A
And I think about Grandpa as I raise my daughter high, as she hangs a star upon the tree
E B F#m A
And a tear comes to my eye, as I think about the way that
E B F#m
Jesus was bought for you and me
[Chorus 2]
A E
Don't forget the star this Christmas
A E
Don't forget the greatest gift of all
A B C#m
The One who came to shine away the dark
F#m a
Bringin' hope for every heart Ohhhhhh
E
Don't forget the star this Christmas
A E
Don't forget the greatest gift of all
A B C#m
The One who came to shine away the dark
F#m A
Bringin' hope for every heart this Christmas
E B F#m A
Don't forget the staaaaar
E B F#m A
Don't forget the star
