E                  B 
Turn on all the Christmas lights
         D            A 
'Cause baby's coming home tonight
 C               B                 E   E 
I can hear her footsteps in the street
C                B
Turn the choral music higher
A7sus            A
Pile more wood upon the fire
Dm7                  G7              C    C  
That should make the atmosphere complete

F            G
I've had to wait forever
Am          B
But better late than never

Chorus:
E
She's just in time for me
She's right on time
She's right where she should be
She's right on time

I'm a man with so much tension
Far too many sins to mention
She don't have to take it anymore
But since she said she's coming home
I've torn out all my telephones
Soon she will be walking through that door

I may be going nowhere
But I don't mind if she's there

Chorus

C          D     Em
Left to my own device
       G7            C
I can always make believe
               A7      D  C#+          C
That there's nothing wrong,  whoa, oh, oh, oh
C              D       Em
Still I will chose to live
        G7          C
In the complicated world
         A7            D
That we shared for so long
       D#dim7           E
Good or bad, right or wrong

And it occurred to me
While I set up my Christmas tree
She never missed a cue or lost a beat
Every time I lost the meter
There she was when I would need her
Greeting me with footsteps in the street

I guess I should have known it
She'd find the perfect moment

Chorus

C                B
Turn the choral music higher
A7sus4           A
Pile more wood upon the fire
Dm7                  G7              C   C  
That should make the atmosphere complete

I've had to wait forever
But better late than never

Chorus

She's right on time
She's right on time
