Come on, weatherman, 
[ G Em]
give us a forecast snowy white 
[ F D ]
Can't you hear the prayers 
[ G Em]
of every childlike heart tonight 
[ F D ]
Rockies are callin', Denver snow fallin' 
[ C G ]
Somebody said it's four feet deep 
[ D G ]
But it doesn't matter, give me the laughter 
[ C G ]
I'm gonna choose to keep... 
[ D D7]


Another tender Tennessee Christmas 
[ G C ]
The only Christmas for me 
[ D G ]
Where the love circles around us 
[ Em Am7]
Like the gifts around our tree 
[ C D ]
Well, I know there's more snow up in Colorado 
[ G Bm]
Than my roof will ever see
 [ Dm7 C ]
But A tender Tennessee Christmas 
[ C D G ]
is the only Christmas for me. 
[ C D G ]


Every now and then I get a wandering urge to see 
[ G Em F D ]
Maybe California, maybe Tinsel Town's for me
 [ G Em F D ]
There's a parade there, we'd have it made there 
[ C G ]
Bring home a tan for New Year's Eve 
[ D G ]
Sure sounds inviting, awfully exciting 
[ C G ]
Still I think I'm gonna keep...
 [ D D7]


Another tender Tennessee Christmas 
[ G C ]
The only Christmas for me 
[ D G ]
Where the love circles around us 
[ Em Am7]
Like the gifts around our tree 
[ C D ]
Well, they say in L.A. it's a warm holiday 
[ G Bm]
It's the only place to be
 [ Dm7 C ]
But A tender Tennessee Christmas
 [ C D G ]
is the only Christmas for me. 
[ C D G ]
