Intro: C F Am G

C                         F
Snow is falling Christmas Eve

C                           F
Lights are coming on up and down the street

C                             F
The sound of carols fills the air

C                                 F
And people rushing home, families everywhere


F                      C
Putting candles in the windows

G               Am
Lights upon the tree

               F                C
But there's no laughter in this house

               G
Not like there used to be

               F              C
There's just a million little memories

     G         Am
That remind me you're not here

            F                 G              C
It's just a different kind of Christmas this year


F

C                  F
In the evening fires glow

C                      F
Dancing underneath the mistletoe

C                        F
A letter left from Santa Claus

C                                   F
Won't be the same this year in this house because


                 F                C
There's one less place set at the table

G                       Am
One less gift under the tree

      F                C                          G
And a brand new way to take their place inside of me

      F                  C
I'm unwrapping all these memories

G                 Am
Fighting back the tears

            F                 G              C
It's just a different kind of Christmas this year


F Am G 


        Am
There's voices in the driveway

         G
Families right outside the door

          C                                   F
And we'll try to make this Christmas like the ones we've had before

      F                         G
As we gather round the table, I see joy on every face

    Am                                  F          G
And I realize what's still alive is the legacy you made


                     F              C
It's time to put the candles in the windows,

    G               Am
The lights upon the tree

             F                    C                G
It's time to fill this house with laughter like it used to be

     F                    C
Just because you're up in heaven, 

        G               Am
Doesn't mean you're not near

            F                 G           Am     G     F
It's just a different kind of Christmas

            F                 G              C
It's just a different kind of Christmas this year

F  Am  G  C
