    G     D/F#  Em          D        C 
Do you remember me, I sat upon your knee 
   C       G/B       Am       Am7    D 
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies 
       G      D/F#     Em                  D        C 
Well, I'm all grown-up now and still need help somehow 
     C     G/B      Am       Am7        D 
I'm not a child but my heart still can dream  
    G        D/F#     Em                  D        C 
So here's my lifelong wish, my grown-up Christmas list 
     C     G/B     Am      Am7    D 
Not for myself but for a world in need
[Refrain]
E        C#m         A 
No more lives torn apart 
      B                G#m7 
That wars would never start 
    C#m                   A     B 
And time would heal all hearts 
E        C#m               A 
And everyone would have a friend 
     B                 G#m7 
And right would always win 
     C#m       C#m7  C#m  D# 
And love would never e----nd 
G#m7 C#m    A        B         E   Esus E 
This is my grown-up Christmas list

    G       D/F#  Em                  D        C 
As children we believed the grandest sight to see 
     C        G/B     Am       Am7        D 
Was something lovely wrapped beneath our tree 
      G     D/F#   Em               D       C 
Well Heaven surely knows that packages and bows 
     C     G/B    Am      Am7   D 
Can never heal a hurting human soul
[Pont]
E                             A 
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth 
      C#m          F#7                B              Eb7 
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
