E B C#m
Do you remember me?
C#m/E G#m7 C#m7
I sat upon your knee

I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
[Verse 1]
E/B B C#m
Well, I'm all grown-up now
C#m/E G#m7 C#m7
and still need help somehow?
A E/G# F#m Bsus4 B
I'm not a child but my heart still can dream
E B C#m
So here's my lifelong wish
G#m Cadd2
My grown-up Christmas list
E/G# F#m7 Bsus4 B7
Not for myself but for a world in need
[Chorus]
E2 E C#sus C#m A
No more lives torn apart
F#9 B7 G#m7
That wars would never start
C#m C#m7/B Asus2 E/B
And time would heal all hearts
E C#m7 C#m7/B A
and everyone would have a friend
F#9 Bsus G#m7
That right would always win
Em7 C#dim C7/F# Daug/F# Bm7
And love would nev-er end

As children we believed
C#m/E G#m7 A
The grandest sight to see
A E/G# F#m Bsus4 B
Was something lovely wrapped beneath our tree

Well Heaven surely knows
G#m Cadd2
That packages and bows
E/G# F#m Bsus4 B
Can never heal a hurting human soul
[Chorus]

No more lives torn apart

What is this illusion called?
The innocence of youth?
C#m7 F#7sus A
Maybe only in our blind belief
