The True Meaning of Christmas copyright 2009 Keyboard intro: C F G C 1. Back when I was just a little boy… Christmas meant no school and new toys C F G C Thoughts of waking up on Christmas day Seeing what Santa left, all day to play C F G C Off to Me’Mere’s meant a lot more toys Playing with cousins, just being a boy C F G C Lots candy, cakes and chocolate pies A family ball game under cool, blue skies Chorus: F C G C I didn’t know the True Meaning of Christmas… Of giving and sharing… and Mary’s Baby Jesus Am F D7 G7 …The True Meaning of Christmas … Just being with…and giving to the ones you love C F G C 2. I’ll never forget, one special Christmas Eve The chill in the air, the falling leaves C F G C I worked all night, connecting race car tracks Playing by myself, eating Santa snacks C F G C The look in my son’s eyes, when he saw his toys… Brought back memories, when I was just a boy C F G C True Meaning of Christmas was then clear to me… It’s the gift of giving that sets you free Chorus: F C G C I ‘ve found the True Meaning of Christmas… Of giving and sharing… and Mary’s Baby Jesus Am F D7 G7 …The True Meaning of Christmas … Just being with… and giving to the ones you love C F G C 3. I think of mom, when I hear a Christmas song I could make her laugh, I could do no wrong C F G C Her love for others taught me how to love… Today she sends her love, from up above C F G C She showed me life is not just about me… I’ve grown into the man she would have me be C F G C I thank this angel for creating me A man who knows the True Meaning of Christmas Chorus: F C G C C7 I know the True Meaning of Christmas… Of giving and sharing and Mary’s Baby Jesus Am F D7 G7 ……The True Meaning of Christmas … Just being with… and giving to the ones you love C F G C end: Back when I was just a little boy …Christmas meant no school and new toys
