C
The world outside
F
Turns frosty white
C                 F
A chill is in the air
C
The lights are hung
F
And everyone
C                       F
Has snowflakes in their hair

[Chorus]
F                   C
My favorite time of year
Dm                   G
Is full of Christmas cheer
C                  Am               F
And when I see the stars on trees a sparkling
F                                C
That's how I know it's December, Darling

F C F C F Em F

[Verse 2]
C
The kitchen smells
F
Like peppermint
C            F
Firewood and pine
C
And all the kids
F
On Santa's list
C                  F
Are looking to the sky

[Chorus]
F                   C
My favorite time of year
Dm                G
When worries disappear
C                  Am       G       F
And when I see the stars on trees a sparkling
C      F                         C
That's how I know it's December, Darling

F C F C F Em F

[Verse 3]
C* 
A frozen lake
F*
A couple skates
C*              F*
They search for mistletoe
C*
They spread their arms
F*
In their back yard
C*                F*
Two angels in the snow

[Chorus]
F                   C
My favorite time of year
Dm                G
When worries disappear
C                  Am       G       F
And when I see the stars on trees a sparkling
C      F          G              Am
That's how I know it's December, Darling
F                                   C
That's how I know it's Decemberrrr, Darling
