Intro:

Vs:
| C em | F C |
Deck the Halls, Unpack the lights

| C em | F C |
Stockings out on the mantle

| C em | F C |
Thirty years oh my entire life

|C em | F C |
Lit up the dark like a candle

| Am F | C |
When I look through the night
| F C | G |
I see your smile like a star in the sky


Chorus:
| F | C |
It’s our first Christmas without you

Its our first Christmas without you

But our memories will carry us through the New Year

With every song, I hear your voice

Calling out like a choir

sing along, oh its my sisters choice
C em | F C |
Don’t know the words it don’t matter

| Am F | C |
Cause when those church bells start ringin’

You’re looking down and I know you’re still singin’

Chorus

Bridge:

Oooo’s


Vs:
| C em | F C |
On the swing near the old apple tree
| C em | F C |
Playing games in the parlor
| C em | F C |
With every step, oh you come back to me
| C em | F C |
I’ll always know where to call ya

| Am F | C
Cause when I look through the night

I see your smile in every star in the sky
