[Intro]
| D | D7 | C/G | G |


[Verse]
     G               G7/B
City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
           C       Am
Dressed in holiday style
       D             D7         G         | C G/B Am7 |
In the air there's a feeling of Christmas
         G                G7/B
Children laughing, people passing
        C           Am
Meeting smile after smile
       D            D7         G    | D7 |
And on every street corner you hear


[Chorus]
G             C
Silver bells, silver bells
D7                         G    | C G/B Am7 |
It's Christmas time in the city
G            C
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
D            D7          |  G  |  %  |  D7  |  %  |  C/G  |  G  |
Soon it will be Christmas Day


[Verse]
     G                   G/B
City street lights, even stop lights
           C       Am
Blink a bright red and green
       D             D7              G         | C G/B Am7 |
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures
         G                    G7/B
Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch
        C           Am
This is Santa's big scene
     D             D7            G    | D7 |
And above all this bustle you'll hear


[Chorus]
G             C
Silver bells, silver bells
D7                         G    | C G/B Am7 |
It's Christmas time in the city
G            C
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring
D            D7          |  G  |  %  |
Soon it will be Christmas Day


[Coda]
D            D7          |  C  | C G/B Am7 | G
Soon it will be Christmas Day
