Verse
C                G 
Nothing here has changed 
F                 Em 
Nothing's been forgotten 
    F                     Em 
The snow still falls like cotton 
       Am              D7 
On the house up on the hill 
     G7             C 
Just like it always will.

C                G 
Nothing here has changed 
F                  Em 
It's just as you remembered 
     F            Em 
Like every past December 
    Am             D7 
The mulit-colored glow 
   G7                 C 
Of lights beneath the snow.

Standing there

In the cold, quiet air

Take a moment just to stop and breathe 
F           G                  C 
Coming home alone on Christmas Eve 
 
Verse
C           G 
Open up the door 
    F                  Em 
The smell of good home cooking 
    F                Em 
And all the kids are looking 
       Am                D7 
At the presents under the tree 
G7                        C 
Wondering what they might be

When dinner's done

Gather everyone

And sing these songs that you might not believe

Coming home alone on Christmas Eve 
F            G                 C 
Coming home alone on Christmas Eve
