[Intro]
Em
[Verse 1]
Am Em
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Am Em
Just like the ones I used to know
Am Em
Where the tree tops glisten and children listen
B7 Em
But there's no footsteps in the snow
[Verse 2]
Am Em
I'm dreaming of a white, bright Christmas
Am Em
With every carol I once breathed
Am C Bm Em
But their bodies lie frozen as they were chosen
B7 Em
To fulfill my hollow empty sleeves
[Verse 3]
Am Em
I'm now dreaming of a crimson Christmas
Am Em
My teeth as white as winter snow
Am Em
I'm wicked, I'm wicked, the witch in the thicket
B7 Em
I'll grind your bones to make me grow
[Chorus]
Am Em
So if you feel tempted to slip into the thicket
Am Em
To the gingerbread rooftop on the hillside
Am C Bm Em
Listen, oh children, my darling children
B7 Em
To the sounds you hear coming from inside
[Bridge]

Ooh Oh, Oh-oh-oh Oh, Oh Oh-oh-oh

Ooh Oh, Oh-oh-oh Oh, Oh Oh-oh-oh
[Verse 4]
Am Em
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Am Em
Just like the ones I used to know
Am Em
But the tree tops glisten and children listen
Am Em
To hear my footsteps in the snow
Am C Bm Em
May your days be merry and bright...
B7 Em
And may all your Christmases be white
B7 Em
And may all your Christmases be alright
B7 Em
And may all your Christmases be white...
