[Verse 1]
C Dm Em Dm
A little girl dressed in her Sunday best
C Dm Em Dm
Went to Sunday school one day
C Dm Em F
She was only three, in the nursery
C G7 C G7
Was the place that she would play
C Dm Em Dm
There were lots of toys for girls and boys
C Dm Em Dm
But she would always go
C Dm Em F
To the corner of the room and play a tune
C G7 C G7
On the little bitty piano

C Dm Em Dm
...was the only song she'd ever play
C Dm Em Dm
She learned to play no other
C Dm Em F
When it was time for Christmas Day
C G7 C
She told her father and mother
C Dm Em Dm
"I don't want a ball, I don't want a doll
C Dm Em Dm
No party, dishes for tea
C Dm Em F
All I want on Christmas morn
C G7 C G7
Is a little 'Jesus Loves Me'"

[Verse 3]
C Dm Em Dm
Now, old Santa heard what the little girl said
C Dm Em Dm
And it filled his eyes with tears
C Dm Em F
For a sweeter wish, he could never hear
C G7 C
If he listened for a million years
C Dm Em Dm
So he sat to work on the little girl's toy
C Dm Em Dm
And finally, when he was through
C Dm Em F
He put the little piano in his sleigh
C G7 C G7
And away he flew
 
[Verse 4]
C Dm Em Dm
When Christmas morning came at last
C Dm Em Dm
Underneath the Christmas tree
C Dm Em F
Was the finest Christmas gift of all
C G7 C
A little 'Jesus Loves Me'
C Dm Em Dm
"I don't want a doll, I don't want a ball
C Dm Em Dm
No party, dishes for tea
C Dm Em F
All I want on Christmas morn
C G7 C G7
Is a little 'Jesus Loves Me'"
