Coming home alone on Christmas Eve 
Composer: Henning Ohlenbusch
https://youtu.be/k5cwcJySzG0


[verse]
C                G
Nothing here has changed 
F                 Em
Nothing's been forgotten 
    F                     Em
The snow still falls like cotton 
       Am              D7
On the house up on the hill 
     G7             C
Just like it always will. 



[verse]
C                G
Nothing here has changed 
F                  Em
It's just as you remembered 
     F            Em
Like every past December 
    Am             D7
The mulit-colored glow 
   G7                 C
Of lights beneath the snow. 



[chorus]
F
Standing there 
       Fm
In the cold, quiet air 
C             E7               Am   C/G
Take a moment just to stop and breathe 
F           G                  C
Coming home alone on Christmas Eve 


[verse]
C           G
Open up the door 
    F                  Em
The smell of good home cooking 
    F                Em
And all the kids are looking 
       Am                D7
At the presents under the tree 
G7                        C
Wondering what they might be 


[chorus]
     F
When dinner's done 
       Fm
Gather everyone 
    C                     E7              Am   C/G
And sing these songs that you might not believe 
F            G                 Am   C/G         
Coming home alone on Christmas Eve 
F            G                 C
Coming home alone on Christmas Eve 



[intrumental chorus]
F Fm C E7 Am C/G F G C



[chorus]
         F
When the kids are tired 
            Fm
And there's no more fire 

    C             E7               Am   C/G
You gather up the gifts that you received 
F            G                 C/G 
Coming home alone on Christmas Eve 


[chorus]
       F
On the cold car seat 
       Fm
In the slow car heat 
C               E7                   Am   C/G
Always wave goodbye when you turn to leave 
F            G                 Am   C/G
Coming home along on Christmas Eve 
F            G                 Am   C/G
Coming home along on Christmas Eve 
F            G                 F   Fm  C
Coming home along on Christmas Eve
