             BLUE CHRISTMAS

Writers, Billy Hayes and Jay Johnson

(C) I'll have a Blue Christmas with- (G7) out you,
I'll be so blue thinking a- (C) bout you,
Decorations of (Gdim) red,
On a (Dm) green Christmas (F) tree, (D7) Won't mean
a thing dear, If (G7) you're not here with me,
I'll have a (C) Blue Christmas that's (G7) certain,
And when that blue heart ache starts (C) hurtin',
You'll be doin' all (Gdim) right, (Dm) With (Em) your
(Dm) Christ- (Em) mas (F) of (A dim) white,
But (G7) I'll have a Blue, Blue (C) Christmas.

(C) I'll have a Blue Christmas, I (G7) know dear,
I hope your White Christmas, brings (C) you cheer,
And when you say your (G dim) prayers,
On (Dm) this Christmas (F) Eve, (D7) Will you
feel the same dear, As (G7) when you prayed with me,
And when those (C) blue snowflakes start (G7) fallin',
That's when those blue mem'ries start (C) callin',
You'll be doin' all (G dim) right, (Dm) With (Em) your
(Dm) Christ- (Em) mas (F) of (A dim) white,
But (G7) I'll have a Blue, Blue (C) Christmas.
