G             C
Silver bells, silver bells.
D              D7          G    D
It's Christmas time in the city.
G            C
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,
D            D7           G
soon it will be Christmas Day.

D    G          D    G
City sidewalks, busy sidewalks,
           C       Am
dressed in holiday style.
       D             D7         G
In the air there's a feeling of Christmas.
D        G         D      G
Children laughing, people passing,
        C           Am
meeting smile after smile.
       D            D7            G     D
And on every street corner you'll hear...

CHORUS:
G             C
Silver bells, silver bells.
D              D7          G   D
It's Christmas time in the city.
G            C 
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,
D            D7           G
soon it will be Christmas Day.

#2.
D          G              D    G
Strings of street lights, even stop lights,
        C              Am
blink a bright red and green..
       D             D7              G
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures.
D        G            D       G
Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch,
        C           Am
this is Santa's big scene.
     D                       G    D
And above all the bustle you hear..
