It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

everywhere you go
Am D
Take a look in the five-and-ten
D7 Am
glistening once again
D A7 Am D
with candy canes and silver lanes aglow
G C G
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
B7 C E7
toys in every store
Am B7
But the prettiest sight to see
G E7
is the holly that will be
Am D7 G
on your own front door
B7
A pair of hop along boots and a pistol that shoots
E7 B7 Em
Is the wish of Barney and Ben
D7 A7
Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk
D7 A7 D
Is the hope of Janice and Jen
D7 A7 Am D D7
And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
B7 C E7
everywhere you go
Am D
There's a tree in the Grand Hotel
D7 Am
one in the park as well
D A7 Am D
the sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow
G C G
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
B7 C E7
soon the bells will start
Am B7
And the thing that will make them ring
G E7
is the carol that you sing
Am D7 G
right within your heart
