E C#m E
If you dream of horse drawn carriages
A B E
Dashing through the snow
C#m E
Before you move to Texas
F#7 B7
There’s something you should know
A E
That they don’t have White Christmases in Houston
A B7 E
I’ve lived here most my life and I should know
A E
I’ve prayed and I’ve pleaded for way too many years
A B7 E
But they just don’t have White Christmases down here
E A E
I’ve heard of winter carnivals in Aspen
E A E
It looks just like a winter wonderland
F#7 B7
But remember while you’re freezin’ throughout this Christmas season
F#7 B7
We’ll be down here with Christmas cheer and flip-flops in the sand
A E
That they don’t have White Christmases in Houston
A B7 E
I’ve lived here most my life and I should know
A E
I’ve prayed and I’ve pleaded for way too many years
A B7 E
But they just don’t have White Christmases down here
[Repeat chorus chords: A E A B7 E A E A B7 G]
E A E
I’ve seen all those Christmas shows on TV
E A E
Blankets of white powder, my how grand
F#7 B7
But while you’ve got snow and holly, I’m feasting on tamales
F#7 B7
Sitting on my back porch with an iced tea in my hand
A E
Cause they don’t have White Christmases in Houston
A B7 E
I’ve lived here most my life and I should know
A E
I’ve prayed and I’ve pleaded for way too many years
A B7 E
But they just don’t have White Christmases down here
A E
I’ve prayed and I’ve pleaded for way too many years
A B7 E
But they just don’t have White Christmases down here
