GDEmDC
Do you remember me, I sat upon your knee
CGAmAmD
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
GDEmDC
Well, I'm all grown-up now and still need help somehow
CGAmAmD
I'm not a child but my heart still can dream
GDEmDC
So here's my lifelong wish, my grown-up Christmas list
CGAmAmD
Not for myself but for a world in need
EC#mA
No more lives torn apart
BG#m
That wars would never start
C#mAB
And time would heal all hearts
EC#mA
And everyone would have a friend
BG#m
And right would always win
C#mC#mC#mD#
And love would never e----nd
G#mC#mABEEE
This is my grown-up Christmas list
GDEmDC
As children we believed the grandest sight to see
CGAmAmD
Was something lovely wrapped beneath our tree
GDEmDC
Well Heaven surely knows that packages and bows
CGAmAmD
Can never heal a hurting human soul
EC#mA
No more lives torn apart
BG#m
That wars would never start
C#mAB
And time would heal all hearts
EC#mA
And everyone would have a friend
BG#m
And right would always win
C#mC#mC#mD#
And love would never e----nd
G#mC#mABEEE
This is my grown-up Christmas list
EA
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth
C#mF#7BC
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
FDmA#
No more lives torn apart
CAm
That wars would never start
DmA#C
And time would heal all hearts
FDmA#
And everyone would have a friend
CAm
And right would always win
DmDmDm F+
And love would never e--nd oh
AmDmA#CAm
This is my grown-up Christmas list
DmA#CAm
This is my only life long wish
DmA#CF
This is my grown-up Christmas list
