[Chorus]
E B7
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
E
Wrap your present to your darlin' from you
E7 A
Pretty pencils to write I love you
E B7 E
Oh, Oh pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue.
[Verse 1]
E B7 E
Crowded streets, busy feet hustle by him
E B E
Downtown shoppers, Christmas is nigh
E7 A
There he sits all alone on the sidewalk
F# B7
Hoping that you won't pass him by.

You'd better hurry, my how time does fly

And in the distance the ringing of laughter
E B7 E
And in the midst of the laughter he cries.

Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue

Wrap your present to your darlin' from you

Pretty pencils to write I love you

Oh, Oh pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue.
