INTRO
Fmaj7       Gm7         C9
I thought I'd seen all the lights
F       Am
And sung all the songs
        Dm      Gm7             Eb   Gm   C   F9
I felt the holiday Lasted a bit too long
Gm7             C7
I never shed any tears
Am7     D7
When Christmas was through
     Gm7                C7      Bbm     F
Until I celebrated one with you
Bb      C
And now

I want the season To      last all year round

When I'm surrounded by these memories
  Gm7           C7              Fmaj7   Gm7  F
It's almost like you're here with me

We treasure things we never thought much of
