I'd love to spend this Christmas with the folks in my hometown,
         B7                                             E
Just to have the gang around, friendly folks in my hometown.
                                   A
I long to see the candles in the windows glow so bright,
          B7 
And the Christmas Trees glitter in the breeze,
                            E
Seem to say welcome home tonight.
 
E           B7             E            A   B7         E
Christmas carols softly singing by the fireside all aglow,
             B7             E               F#            B7 
Children's laughter gaily ringing  as they battle in the snow.
     E                               A
My Heart is winging homeward as the snow comes fallin' down,
       B7                   E                 A      B7      E
Oh, I love to spend this Christmas with the folks in my hometown.
