Eddy Arnold - One christmas eve long ago

^CNo decorations ^Fthat I could ^Csee There were no ^G7presents there was no ^Ctree

From the sky there came a ^Fglow One Christmas ^CEve ^G7so long ^Cago

No shopping malls ^Fno flashing ^Clights Just one big ^G7star to fill the ^Cnight

The light of love began to ^Fgrow One Christmas ^CEve ^G7long a^Cgo

That's how I ^G7feel it down in my ^Csoul Much more than ^Fsilver ^G7and more than ^Cgold

So far ^B7beyond mere words to ^Emsay The ^Cgift of ^D7love was ours on that first Christmas ^G7day

No deco^Crations ^Fno fancy ^Clight He came in ^G7silence on that holy ^Cnight

That's how it was somehow I ^Fknow One Christmas ^CEve ^G7long a^Cgo

One Christmas Eve ^G7long a^Cgo
