Do you remember me, I sat upon your knee
   C       G/B       Am       Am7    D
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
       G      D/F#     Em                  D        C
Well, I'm all grown-up now and still need help somehow
     C     G/B      Am       Am7        D
I'm not a child but my heart still can dream

So here's my lifelong wish, my grown-up Christmas list
     C     G/B     Am      Am7    D
Not for myself but for a world in need

  E        C#m         A
No more lives torn apart
      B                G#m7
That wars would never start
    C#m                   A     B
And time would heal all hearts

As children we believed the grandest sight to see
     C        G/B     Am       Am7        D
Was something lovely wrapped beneath our tree
      G     D/F#   Em               D       C
Well Heaven surely knows that packages and bows
     C     G/B    Am      Am7   D
Can never heal a hurting human soul

E                             A
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth
      C#m          F#7                B              Esus4 E
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
