"Please Come Home For Christmas"
(Charles Brown - Gene Redd)
[arrangement from Eagles 1978 single]
[Intro]
[A E F# C#] (single notes on piano)
[Verse 1]
Bells will be ringing the sad, sad news
Oh what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby s gone I have no friends
To wish me greetings once again
[Verse 2]
Crowds will be singing "Silent Night"
Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas, please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas, by New Year s night
[Bridge]
Friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
But this is Christmas, yes, Christmas my dear
The time of year to be with the one you love
[Verse 3]
So won t you tell me you ll never more roam
Christmas and New Year s will find you home
There ll be no more sorrow, no grief and pain
And I ll be happy, [1: happy] once again
[2: Christmas]
[repeat verse 3 with guitar solo over first two lines]
[Outro]
[ ] (single notes on piano)
