White Christmas

(C)I'm dreaming of a (Dm7)white Christ(G)mas,
(F)just like the (G)ones I used to (C)know,
where the tree tops (C7)glisten and (F)children (Fm)listen
to (C)hear (Am)sleighbells in the (Dm)snow (G)-(C)

I'm dreaming of a (Dm7)white Christ(G)mas,
(F)with every (G)Christmas card I (C)write,
may your days be (C7)merry and (F)br(Fm)ight,
and may (C)all your (Dm)Christmas(G)es be (C)white

White Christmas

Time 4/4


    Dm7    G7           Em7      C6/E
The sun is shining; the grass is green,
    G/D        Dm7 G7      Csus   C
The orange and palm trees sway,
        Dm7        G9     C/E     Am7 Dm7     G9       C
There’s never been such a day      in Beverly Hills, L.A.
Fm6        G7           F/G G7 C
  But it’s December the twenty fourth,
Am6 B7                      |Em7  Eb7|Dm7–G13–|
  And I am longing to be up north.

Children listen to hear sleigh bells in the snow.
