Sing Me Back
Verse 1:
G
Unpacking the old Christmas tree
C
It's had better days from what I've seen
D C
Can't believe there's still needles left to fall
G
A kiss beneath the mistletoe
C
Carols on the radio
D
I can hear my mom humming
C
along
Pre Chorus:
Am D
Memories that seem so near
Am D
Reminiscent of family I hold dear
Chorus:
G
Sing me back to days of old
D
A melody of Christmas told
C
With peace on earth and angels all
G
around
G
A babe in the nativity
D
Gifts under the Christmas tree
C
How fast the years have slipped out
D
of my grasp
G
Oh, Sing me back
Verse 2:
G
Ornaments from way back when
C
The tiny hands that made them then

Each one has a place within my heart

Christmas Eve & candlelight

The First Noel & Silent Night

With everyone singing along / I can hear us all singin along

Moments that I try to recreate

Can't replace the here & now that's
D
lived along the way
Outro:
G
Packing up the old Christmas tree/ Repacking the old Christmas tree
C
The memories that it has seen
D
Can't believe there's still needles left
C
to fall
Sing Me Back
Unpacking the old Christmas tree
It's had better days from what I've seen
Can't believe there's still needles left to fall
A kiss beneath the mistletoe
Carols on the radio
I can hear my mom humming along
Memories that seem so near
Reminiscent of family I hold dear
Sing me back to days of old
A melody of Christmas told
With peace on earth and angels all around
A babe in the nativity
Gifts under the Christmas tree
How fast the years have slipped out of my grasp
Oh Sing me back
Ornaments from way back when
The tiny hands that made them then
Each one has a place within my heart
Christmas Eve & candlelight
The First Noel & Silent Night
With all of us singing along
Memories that seem so near
Reminiscent of family I hold dear
Sing me back to days of old
A melody of Christmas told
With peace on earth and angels all around
A babe in the nativity
Gifts under the Christmas tree
How fast the years have slipped out of my grasp
Oh Sing me back
Moments that I try to recreate
Can't replace the here & now that's lived along the way
Sing me back to days of old
A melody of Christmas told
With peace on earth and angels all around
A babe in the nativity
Gifts under the Christmas tree
How fast the years have slipped out of my grasp
Oh, Sing me back
Sing me back to days of old
A melody of Christmas told
With peace on earth and angels all around
A babe in the nativity
Gifts under the Christmas tree
How fast the years have slipped out of my grasp
Oh, Sing me back
Repacking the old Christmas tree
The memories that it has seen
Can't believe there's still needles left to fall
