Dm                   C                Bb    C
I can picture the moonlight on the meadow.
Dm                  C              Cm7
I know just how it look this time of year.
Dm                 G          Gm               C
The valley in the slow, the friendly smiles I know.
     Fm             Bb             C/A   Am
But that's so many miles away from here.


[Verse 2]
 Dm                C               Bb      C
Father will be wondering how I'm doing.
 Dm                C            Cm7    Dm
Mother will be praying like she does.
  Gm                C       Fm               Bb
But I'll get home again - oh how long it's been,
         Gm             C                 F   Bb/F  F
Since Christmas is the way that Christmas was.

I'll get home for Christmas.

No, I'd never miss it.
Dm/Bb               F/A              Gm7         C
Christmas by the fireside with that family of mine.
F
Christmas day will find me with the miles behind me.
Dm    C          Dm/Bb  Gm7   F   Bb/F   F
I'll make  it     home  on   time.


[Verse 3]
Dm                     C                   Bb     C
Christmas Eve will be time for all my memories.
      Dm                C                 Cm7  Dm
I'll share the greatest love - I'll ever known.
     Gm            C      Fm                 Bb
As gentle voices sing, now the church bells ring.
   Gm              C                 F
Christmas Eve, I know will find me home.


[Chorus]
F
I'll get home for Christmas.
F
No, I'd never miss it.
Dm/Bb                F/A              Gm7      C
Christmas by the fireside with that family of mine.
F
Christmas day will find me with the miles behind me.
Dm    C          Dm/Bb   Gm7      F
I'll make  it     home     on   time.
