By Christmas Eve

      B                             C#m
I'm a thousand miles away, it's not snowing in A
        B                          C#m
But I'm falling just the same, I'm sorry
        B                                   C#m
All the flights have been delayed, I've got nowhere here to stay
       B                       C#m
But if I can find my way, I'll hurry


[Pre-Chorus]
                 C#m                               B/D#
Just hang up the Christmas lights, and I'll do the rest tonight
     E/F#
Just tell the kids I'm coming, I swear that I'll be running
              C#m                             B/D#
And under the Christmas tree, together, yeah, we will be
  E/F#
I promise


[Chorus]
          B                  D#m
I'm gonna walk, if I have to run
                  Emaj7                C#m
I'll stand on the highway and stop someone
               B                     D#m
I'll cross the deserts and oceans, a river that's frozen
     C#m                      C#m/B
I'll follow the stars just to find where you are
        E
You can count on me
       B                F#/Bb     A        D#m/G#
Make a wish, close your eyes, and believe
        E/F#
I'll be home, home, home, home, home by Christmas Eve

B    C#m    B    C#m

[Verse 2]
      B                             C#m
And I know it's all on you, keep it together like you're glue
    B                    C#m
And everything you do, I notice
              B
So I'll bring presents, I'll bring wine
          C#m
The mistletoe for you and I
         B                        C#m
And I'll be there just in time to show it


[Pre-Chorus]
                 C#m                               B/D#
Just hang up the Christmas lights, and I'll do the rest tonight
     E/F#
Just tell the kids I'm coming, I swear that I'll be running
              C#m                             B/D#
And under the Christmas tree, together, yeah, we will be
  E/F#
I promise


[Chorus]
          B                  D#m
I'm gonna walk, if I have to run
                  Emaj7                C#m
I'll stand on the highway and stop someone
               B                     D#m
I'll cross the deserts and oceans, a river that's frozen
     C#m                      C#m/B
I'll follow the stars just to find where you are
        E
You can count on me
       B                F#/Bb     A        D#m/G#
Make a wish, close your eyes, and believe
        E/F#
I'll be home, home, home, home, home by Christmas Eve

B

[Bridge]
      C#m7                    D#m
Whoa, I'll find my way back to California
     E
I'll follow the map, yeah, to somewhere warmer
     C#m7               D#m                  E/F#
I'll carry my bags just until I can hold you again


[Chorus]

          B                  D#m
I'm gonna walk, if I have to run
                  Emaj7                C#m
I'll stand on the highway and stop someone
               B                     D#m
I'll cross the deserts and oceans, a river that's frozen
     C#m                      C#m/B
I'll follow the stars just to find where you are
        E
You can count on me
       B                F#/Bb     A        D#m/G#
Make a wish, close your eyes, and believe
        E/F#
I'll be home, home, home, home, home by Christmas Eve
