This is the version performed by Jennifer Cella at the band's live performances. I did
with just my acoustic guitar and it is my first submission, so please go easy on me!
Use a capo if necessary to guide your voice. I'm a girl and I find it comfortable with
capo at the 4th fret. It can work just as well on the 3rd or even 5th, depending on
voice's capability.
Intro
Christmastime on a cold December morning
All is calm and the world is still asleep
Christmas lights that have been caught without warning
Gently glitter on
Stars to wish upon
All the world is at peace
Christmastime and the year will soon be leaving
Cloaked in time till it’s just a memory
Christmas stays if we don’t forget its meaning
Days go quickly by
Years they multiply
And we go searching for thee
Chorus
And the dream is still alive
From that first December morning
And it always will survive
As long as we can see
That the dreams that we find in life
Are the dreams we tend to seek
And Christmas has its promises to keep
Oh, to keep
Refrain
Chorus
And the dream is still alive
From that first December morning
And it always will survive
As long as we can see
That the dreams that we find in life
Are the dreams we tend to seek
And Christmas has its promises
Christmas has its promises
Christmas has its promises to keep
Oh, to keep
To keep
Ohhhhh ohhhhh
Christmastime and the moment’s just beginning
From that night when we wished upon that star
And if this kindness we feel is just pretending
If we pretend long enough
Never giving up
It just might be who we are
No chords
We are
