Intro: A
A
Well, on Queen Street they're all laughing
Bm
And they're piling the boxes up high
A
But the sidewalk looks like ashes
D A
From the cars that are passing us by
A
There is water on your lashes
Bm
Must be more than just snow in your eyes
A
While I tie a bright red sash around
D A
Your shoulders, and that will be fine
E ***
'Cause you are a gift

A
Well, if trees could be a warning
Bm
Then I'd know where my collar should hide
A
And I know tomorrow morning
D A
Just exactly whose heart isn't fine
A
It's a silent night
Bm
But I cannot tell if it's truly divine
A
Bells will be ringing, but I would be blind to them
D A E ***
Outside they're singing, but I don't pay no mind to them
D A
When you are a gift
