  The light bright up the   Christmas tree
           Oh goodie,         it's Christmas Eve


Verse 1
    D                    G                 D
The lights bright up the Christmas tree
                G                   D
Oh goodie, it's Christmas Eve
                     G                      D
Got my baby, got his family and friends
                  G
Draw another year to an end

*Chorus*
Am (A|0-2-3) C              G
Ribbons      gold and blue
      D             Am
Do not deliver you
Am (A|0-2-3) C                 G
Presents     pretty and bright
                     D
Don't make this empty space feel alright
C    C/B       Am                      (A|0-2h0-3)
Ohhhhhh, if my heart were made of gold
C    C/B       Am
         If my heart were made of gold
        G             D                       C
Then maybe you'd find something to love about me

*Verse 2*  Same as first verse
The weather is unseasonably warm
Everybody's wishing for the Texas snow storm
Don't peak in stockings don't let my mind drift
There is a missing gift

*Chorus*
Presents, gold and blue
Do not deliver you
Presents, pretty and bright
Don't make this empty space feel alright
Ohh, if my heart were made of gold
If my heart were made of gold
Then maybe you'd find something to love about me

*Ending*
Em          C              G
You only wanted to see the gold star
   D
On top of the tree
     Em              C
Oh I wished I may, I wished my whole life
            G
To shine as bright
D
Bright enough for you to see
    Em       Am          Em
The gooooooooold, oh the gold
Am                (A|0-2h0-3)
Soft shining gold
C   C/B             Am                   (A|0-2h0-3)
      I was not the kind that you can hold
C   C/B         Am
    Tell me why could not you see
    D                  G
The treasure inside of me


You'll have to listen to the song to get the rhythm and timing.  (A|0-2-3)  and  
refers to string A and the frets you play on it.  Keep it in rhythm and work it in smoothly.  
keep the same plucking pattern and rhythm for the who song as the intro and verses.
