It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas
Words & Music by Meredith Wilson, 1951
Recorded by Perry Como with the Fontane Sisters, 1952
A7 D6 D9 G G/B D DM7 F#7 G
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, everywhere you go.
Em7 G/B A7 DM7 F#m B7
Take a look in the five and ten, glistening once again,
E7 Cdim Bm7-5 E7 A7
With candy canes and silver lanes aglow.
A7 D6 D9 G G/B D DM7 F#7 G
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, toys in every store,
E7 Bm7-5 A7 Fdim D F#m B7
But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be
B7/F# G A7 D G D
On your own front door.
Bridge:
DM7 F#7 C#m7-5 Bm7-5 F#7
A pair of Hop-a-long boots and a pistol that shoots
F#7 C#m7-5 Bm
Are the wishes of Barney and Ben.
E7 Fdim Bm7-5 E7
Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk
Bm7-5 Fdim A7
Is the hope of Janice and Jen.
A AM7 A7 A7/6 Em7 Fdim A7
And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again.
A7 D6 D9 G G/B D DM7 F#7 G
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, everywhere you go.
Em7 G/B A7 DM7 F#m B7
There's a tree in the grand hotel, one in the park as well --
E7 Cdim Bm7-5 E7 A7
The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow.
A7 D6 D9 G G/B D DM7 F#7 G
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, soon the bells will start.
E7 Bm7-5 A7 Fdim D F#m B7
And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing
B7/F# G A7 F#7 B7 G A7 D
Right within your heart, right within your heart.
