Cherry Cherry Christmas

Neil Diamond


Tom: F#m

           A            E             D     A
Wish you a very merry, cherry cherry Christmas
       D            A       E
And a holly holy holiday, too.
       D          E              A    F#m
Underneath your tree may there always be
 B                        E   Esus4 E
Sounds of harmony, not a song sung blue.

[Verse]
       A             E             D    A
Just a very merry, cherry cherry Christmas.
       D                  E              A
And if all of those who love you gather near,
               D           E              A
You'll have a very merry, cherry cherry, holly holy,
F#m              D         E    A
Rock and rolly Christmas this year.

[Bridge]
          D    A            D   A
When the snow drops on the treetops
         D     E       A
It's a pretty amazing scene.
          D A              D A
Hear the choir, light the fire.
            B                            E     Esus4  E
Feels like pretty amazing grace if you know what I mean.

      A   E   D        D        A     E    D     D
Oh yeah,....... it's Christmas time.

[Verse]
     A               E             D   A
In a world of make-believe I'm a believer,
      D                      A           E
And I believe in things not always understood,
         D          E         A         F#m
But the things you feel make believing real.
              B                 E       Esus4    E
That's why Christmas feels so good, so good, so good.

[Verse]
         A               E                  D  A
When you imagine all the world as one great chorus,
              D                 E              Dmaj7
You're gonna learn that every voice has got a song.
               D                  E
Let's raise a Christmas toast of red, red wine,

      A               F#m                  D           E     A
We'll even sing Sweet Caroline while the whole world sings along.

(Instrumental following 1st verse)

[Verse]
       A            E                 D    A
I hear music in the sound of children laughing.
       D                     C#               F#m
It's a beautiful noise that fits you like a song.
            D             E            A
Makes you wanna  have a very merry, holly holy,
F#m           D                     E        A   E  D
Cherry Cherry Christmas time the whole year long.
                                                                               (Slowing)
       D         A  E   D                      A  E      D                A    E    D   D    A
The whole year long......sing your Christmas song........the whole year long.
