Give Love on Christmas Day (Lyrics and Chords)

[Advent] [Christmas]
Jackson 5

           Am      Dm                        Em7
People making lists buying special gifts
           Am         Dm7                  G
Taking time to be kind to one and all.
         Am        Dm                                 Em7
It's the time of year when good friends are dear
             A                            Dm
And you wish you could give more
              G                        C
Than just presents from the store.


Chorus:
C       Dm   C    F                 Dm     Em A7sus - A7
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day?
A7    Dm                            G
Oh, even the man who has everything,
CM7                                         C7
Would be so happy if you would bring
F                   Dm       Em7 A7
him love on Christmas day.
      Dm7       G7                 CM7
No greater gift is there than love.

Verse 2 (Same Chords as Verse 1)
People you don't know smile and nod "hello"
Everywhere there's an air of Christmas joy.
It's that once a year when the world's sincere
And you like to find a way
To show the things that words can't say.

Chorus 2:
C       Dm    C  FM7              Dm        Em
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day?
A7         Dm7  
Oh, the man on the street
             G
and the couple upstairs
CM7
All need to know
                                C7
There's someone who cares.
FM7              Dm        Em
Give love on Christmas Day
Am           Dm G7            CM7
No greater gift is there than love.

Coda:
              FM7                Dm
What the world needs is love.
              E                      Am
Yes, the world needs your love.

Chorus 3:
           C          G               Dm        Em7
Why don't you give love on Christmas day?
A    Dm7                       G7
Oh, every little child on Santa's knee
        CM7
Has room for your love
                       C7
underneath his tree
FM7             Dm         Em
Give love on Christmas Day
      Dm7        G                CM7
No greater gift is there than love.
