B                              A                 E
Mama used to send us early to bed on Christmas Eve
B                               A                E
She became Santa's helper and they took care of me
B                                A            E
We would wake up early from our beds only to see
    F#m                             A                 B
The love she had for all of us was left beneath the tree

Chorus:
            A              B
One day I know we'll be together
          E
When the Lord brings me to you
         A                 B
Then I know, I will be in Heaven
         E
When my eyes can rest on you
            A            B
But until then I will remember
         C#m         B          A
All the good times that we've shared
      F#m                            B
I'll hang a star upon this tree for you
      A              B                   E
On Christmas Day I know you'll be there too

Now that I am all grown up with children of my own
I see the happiness in their eyes, somehow I wish I'd known
But not a Christmas Day goes by, that I will not see
The gift you gave to all of us was the love you gave to me

Chorus

            A             B    E
One day I know we'll be together
            A             B    E
Then I know I will be in Heaven
         A         B
I won't have to remember
             C#m      B         A
'Cause I'm standing there with you
       F#m                        B
Of a time that you and I always knew
            A                B               E
Mama, on Christmas Day I'll finally be with you
