G
I don't want a lot for Christmas
G/B
there is just one thing I need
C
I don't care about the presents
Cm
underneath the Christmas tree
G Bm C/E D
I just want you for my own
G Bm C/E D
more than you could ever know
C
Make my wish come true...
C D G Em C D
All I want for Christmas is you
 
I don't want a lot for Christmas
there is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking
there upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
with a toy on Christmas day
 
I just want you for my own
more than you could ever know
Make my wish come true...
All I want for Christmas is you, you, baby
 
I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
underneath the mistletoe
I won't even make a list and send it
to the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to
hear those magic reindeer click
 
'Cause I just want you here tonight
holding on to me so tight
What more can I do, baby
All I want for Christmas is you, you
 
B G
All the lights are shining so brightly everywhere
B G
And the sound of children laughter fills the air
Cm G Em
and everyone is singing I hear those sleigh bells swinging
C
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need
D
won't you please bring my baby to me
 
Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
this is all I'm asking for
I just want to see baby
standing right outside my door
 
Oh I just want him for my own
more than you could ever know
Make my wish come true,
all I want for Christmas is you...
all I want for Christmas is you...
