Ill Be There Christmas Eve

D                                 G
Who knows why we do the things we do?
Em7                             A7
Or why I chose to run away from you?
D                                    G
But this big city's seen the last of me
Em7      A7        Em7      A7
And I'll be there. Darlin', I'll be there.

[Chorus]
D                       G
I'll be there Christmas Eve
Em7     A7           G   D
Darlin' don't stop believing
D
Don't give up hope
      G             Em
Don't lose faith in me
Em7         A7                 D
'Cause I'll be there Christmas Eve.

[Verse 2]
D                                G
Years can rush like waves upon a shore
Em7                          A7
And weave a weary pathway to your door
D                                  G
Have all of our tomorrows come and gone
Em7          A7           Em7              A7                D
Like evening sunlight and stars before the dawn? Can we move on?

[Chorus]
D                       G
I'll be there Christmas Eve
Em7     A7           G  D
Darlin' don't stop believing
D
Don't give up hope
      G
Don't lose faith in me
Em7         A7                 D
'Cause I'll be there Christmas Eve.

[Verse 3]
D                                 G
Who knows why we do the things we do?
Em7                 A7                   D        A7
I'm so sorry that I said those things to you
D                               G            Em
Now I can't make up for all the tears you've cried
A7          G      A7       G
But I'll be there. Darlin', I'll be there.

[Chorus]
    D                       G
And I'll be there Christmas Eve
Em7     A7           G  D
Darlin' don't stop believing
D
Don't give up hope
      G             Em
Don't lose faith in me
Em7         A7                 D
'Cause I'll be there Christmas Eve.
