-- = single strum
G# Fm G#
If you dream of horse drawn carriages
C# D# G#
Dashing through the snow
Fm G#
Before you move to Texas
A#7 D#7
There’s something you should know
C# G#
That they don’t have White Christmases in Houston
C# D#7 G#
I’ve lived here most my life and I should know
C# G#
I’ve prayed and I’ve pleaded for way too many years
C# D#7 G#
But they just don’t have White Christmases down here
G# C# G#
I’ve heard of winter carnivals in Aspen
G# C# G#
It looks just like a winter wonderland
A#7 D#7
But remember while you’re freezin’ throughout this Christmas season
A#7 D#7
We’ll be down here with Christmas cheer and flip-flops in the sand
C# G#
That they don’t have White Christmases in Houston
C# D#7 G#
I’ve lived here most my life and I should know
C# G#
I’ve prayed and I’ve pleaded for way too many years
C# D#7 G#
But they just don’t have White Christmases down here
[Repeat chorus chords: C# G# C# D#7 G# C# G# C# D#7 G]
G# C# G#
I’ve seen all those Christmas shows on TV
G# C# G#
Blankets of white powder, my how grand
A#7 D#7
But while you’ve got snow and holly, I’m feasting on tamales
A#7 D#7
Sitting on my back porch with an iced tea in my hand
C# G#
Cause they don’t have White Christmases in Houston
C# D#7 G#
I’ve lived here most my life and I should know
C# G#
I’ve prayed and I’ve pleaded for way too many years
C# D#7 G#
But they just don’t have White Christmases down here
C# G#
I’ve prayed and I’ve pleaded for way too many years
C# D#7 G#
But they just don’t have White Christmases down here
