G Bm
Mama's in the kitchen, Christmas on the stove
C Am D
Daddy's in the woodshed with axe and overcoat
G Bm
Everybody's helpin' to place and trim the tree
C Am D
The picture's almost perfect, it's only missin' me
[Chorus]
C D G B7 Em
But I'm comin' home for Christmas, save a place for me
C G Am D
I'll ar- rive before Saint Nicholas places gifts beneath the tree
C D G B7 Em D
Leave a candle burnin' and a key underneath the mat

I'm comin' home for Christmas, you can count on the that
G Bm G Em D
Let it snow, ooh, ooh
G Bm G Em D
Let it snow
[Verse 2]
G Bm
Snow is gently fallin' as I make my way toward home
C Am D
I hear sweet memories callin' I've been a long time ago
G Bm
Nothin' like the family and friends to celebrate
C Am D
The fun, the food, the music of this special holiday
[Chorus]
C D G B7 Em
Oh, when I'm comin' home for Christmas, save a place for me
C G Am D
I'll ar- rive before Saint Nicholas places gifts beneath the tree

So leave the candle burnin' and a key underneath the mat

I'm comin' home for Christmas, we can all depend on that
