Christmas Time's a Comin' (chords and lyrics)

E                     B
Snowflakes falling, my old home's a calling
E                      B                  E
Tall pines are humming Christmas time's a comin'.

Refrain:
          E                                A
Can't you hear them bells ringin' bringin' joy to all hear them singin'
E                               B                  E
When it's snowing I'll be going back to my country home
E                         B 
Christmas times a' comin', Christmas times a' comin'
E                               B              E
Christmas times a' comin' and I know I'm going home.

Holly's in the window. Home's where the wind blows
Can't walk for running, Christmas time's a comin'.

Home fire is burning, my heart's a yearning
For the folks at home when Christmas time's a comin'.
