Verse 1

G C

I’ll have a blue Christmas without you

G

I’ll be so blue just thinking about you

Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree

Won’t be the same, dear, if you’re not here with me

Verse 2

G C

And when those blue snowflakes start fallin’

You’ll be doin’ all right with your Christmas of white

But I’ll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas

Verse 3 (Repeat)

G C

I’ll have a blue Christmas without you
