Christmas Where You Are

G There are stockings Full and waiting From sea to shining sea Em Jingle bells are ringing C In keys of... liberty C Children celebrating D Santa and his sleigh Of reindeer who found their way again Across the home, home of the brave G 'Tis the 25th day of December Em In a season best to remember Em That blessings and bows and mistletoes Em Are not without tolls... Guardian souls C A soldier has a soldier's duty C That takes no holiday D So because you're far from home this winter D There's one thing I'd like to say... G Thank you! For the gift of freedom Em C G That lights these Holy stars Em Thank you! A For each & every Christmas tree Am D Across this sacred land of ours Bm Em May angels fly beside you Am G F May heaven steel your heart Am G May God remind you in his grace C G Though tonight I cannot touch your face Am D It doesn't matter if you're near or far G It's Christmas where you are G Your chair is empty at the table Still I take your hand Em As we pray for peace in this small world On our knees we stand C Of this body of this nation You are the heart and spine D So to each great generation Of heroes down the line... G Thank you! For the gift of freedom Em C G That lights these Holy stars Em Thank you! A For each & every Christmas tree Am D Across this sacred land of ours Bm Em May angels fly beside you Am G F May heaven steel your heart Am G May God remind you in his grace C G Though tonight I cannot touch your face Am D It doesn't matter if you're near or far Em It's Christmas where you are Em Every day is Memorial Day Every day the 4th of July D Let all religions celebrate The freedom that you provide C F For if we stand together We will never fall D Merry Christmas to the one I love!
