Intro: (F) (F/E) (Dm) (Dm/C) (Bb9) (C7sus) (C7)  

(F) Winter snow is (F/E) falling down, (Dm) children laughing (Dm/C) all around.
(Bb9) Lights are turnin' on, like a (C7sus) fairy tale come (C7) true.
(F) Sitting by the (F/E) fire we made, (Dm) you're the answer (Dm/C) when I prayed
(Bb9) I would find some (F) one, and (C7sus) baby I found (C7) you.

  And all I (F/A) want is to (Bb) hold you for(C)ever.
  All I (F/A) need is you (Bb) more every(C)day.
  (F/A) You saved my (A7) heart from being (Dm) broken ap(G7)art,
  You gave your (Gm7) love away,
  And I'm thankful (Bb) every day (C) for the (F) gift. 

(F/E) (Dm) (Dm/C) (Bb9) (C7sus) (C7)  

Watching as you softly sleep, what I'd give if I could keep
Just this moment, if only time stood still.
But the colors fade away, and the years will make us gray,
But baby in my eyes, you'll still be beautiful.

(REPEAT CHORUS)

(SOLO)

(REPEAT CHORUS)

Can't find the (Gm7) words to say
(C) Thank you for the (F) gift (F/E) (Dm) (Dm/C) (Bb9) (C7sus) (C7) (F)
