C
[Verse 1]
C
It's been a long long year
Dm7
But Christmas is finally here
G
Been waiting and waiting
G
Anticipating
C
The jolly old man with the beard
[Verse 2]
C
He took his sweet sweet time
Dm7
Getting those reindeer aligned
G
They jingled and jangled
G
Caught in a tangle
C
But looks like they're finally flying
[Pre-Chorus]
F Em7
Listen baby those sleigh bells ringing
F C
And the tabernacle choir singing
F Em7
I wonder what Santa's bringing
G
Bringing for you my dear
[Chorus]
C Am G
Oh it's been a long long year
F G
But Christmas is finally here
C G Am G
Yeah it's been a long long year
F G C
But Christmas is finally here
[Verse 3]
C
It's been a wild wild ride
Dm
But darling with you by my side
G
Through the hustle and bustle
G
And all the kerfuffle
C
We kept the spirit alive
[Verse 4]
C
Now it's that time of year
Dm7
When the Bethlehem star appears
G
Together we made it
G
So let's celebrate it
C
Christmas is finally here
[Pre-Chorus]
F Em7
Look baby it started snowin'
F C
You and I could get a fire going
F Em7
My heart is overflowing
G G7
You fill up my cup with cheer
[Chorus]
C Am G
Oh it's been a long long year
F G
But Christmas is finally here
C G Am G
Yeah it's been a long long year
F G C
But Christmas is finally here
[Outro]
Dm Cm F E7 Am D7
It's been a long long long long long long year
F G C
And Christmas is finally here
C
Merry Christmas to you
