The Music Box

Intro:
F   AM   G   C (4 times)
Bm  G

C
Remember last Christmas Eve
G
When we sat next to our first tree
Am
Ornaments reflected light
F
Of a candle in the night

C
And I gave you a music box
G
Back then that seemed like so much
Am
We watched it go round and round
F
As the melodies unwound

C
But all these things are now long gone
Continues after the ad
F                   G                   C
And not to be wished upon again

            F       Am         G       C
But the music box continues to turn
            F       Am         G       C
The candle in the window continues to burn
            F       Am         G       C
But I know they're just memories
            F       Am         G       C
Like Christmas past and you and me

C
Remember that old fireplace
G
That held the room in warm embrace
Am
And as we watched for Christmas ghosts
F
The fire held the shadows close




C
But now upon that Christmas scene
G
The candle wax of melted dreams
Am
And ornaments of shattered glass
F
Now belonging to the past

C
But all these things are now long gone
        F           G                  C
And not to be wished upon again

            F       Am         G       C
But the music box continues to turn
            F       Am         G       C
The candle in the window continues to burn
            F       Am         G       C
But I know they're just memories
            F       Am         G           C
Like Christmas past and you      and me
