(C) Old man playing (C7)Santa Claus, (F) blew into town with (Fm)old Jack Frost
Now he's (Em7) handing out (Am)candy canes and (Dm7)smiles for free (G7)
(C) People scurry (C7)with their lists, (F) rushing around to (Fm)buy those gifts
That will (Em7) end up (Am)wrapped up under-(Dm7)neath the tree (G)

(Gm) I'm sitting at this (C)red light looking at (F) a manger scene (Fm)
Watching (Em7)snowflakes kiss that (Am)baby and it (Dm7)makes me (G7)think

(Chorus)
I wonder what (C) God wants (Am) for (Dm7)Christmas (G7)
(C)Something that you (C7/G)can't find (C7)in a (F)store (Fm)
Maybe (Em7) peace on Earth, (Am) no more (Dm) empty seats in (Bb)church
Might be (D7)what's on His wish-(G)list
