Just last year when I was on-ly sev-en

Now I'm al-most eight, as you can see

You came home at quar-ter past e-lev-en
-6   6    6   6   6    -7
And fell down un-der-neath
-7    7    -8   7
our Christ-mas tree

Out thru the win-dow
-4    6  6   6
She told me son

You’d bet-ter get up-stairs 
  8   8     8     8   8    8
Then you laughed and hol-lered
 -8  7    -7   -6
"Mer-ry Christ-mas"

I turned a-round and saw

My Mom-ma's tears
