G# G C
What's this? What's this?
B
There's color everywhere
What's this?
C
There's white things in the air
What's this?
Em
I can't believe my eyes
C
I must be dreaming
Em B
Wake up, Jack, this isn't fair
G C
What's this?
What's this? What's this?
B
There's something very wrong
What's this?
C
There's people singing songs
What's this?
The streets are lined with
Em C
Little creatures laughing
Em C
Everybody seems so happy
Em G
Have I possibly gone daffy?
B
What is this?
G C
What's this?
Am
There's children throwing snowballs
Em
Instead of throwing heads
Am
They're busy building toys
Em
And absolutely no one's dead
Gm
There's frost on every window
A#m
Oh, I can't believe my eyes
A
And in my bones I feel the warmth
C#m G#
That's coming from inside
G C
Oh, look
What's this?
B
They're hanging mistletoe, they kiss
C
Why that looks so unique, inspired
Em C
They're gathering around to hear a story
Em B
Roasting chestnuts on a fire
G C
What's this?
What's this?
In here
B
They've got a little tree, how queer
C
And who would ever think
And why?
Em C
They're covering it with tiny little things
Em C
They've got electric lights on strings
E C
And there's a smile on everyone
Em B
So, now, correct me if I'm wrong
C
This looks like fun
E
This looks like fun
Am B
Oh, could it be I got my wish?
G C
What's this?
Oh my, what now?
B
The children are asleep
C
But look, there's nothing underneath
Em
No ghouls, no witches here to scream and scare them
C B C
Or ensnare them, only little cozy things
Em Em6
Secure them in their dreamland...
G C
What's this?
Am
The monsters are all missing
Em
And the nightmares can't be found
Am
And in their place there seems to be
Em
Good feeling all around
Gm
Instead of screams, I swear
A#m
I can hear music in the air
A
The smell of cakes and pies
C#m G#
are absolutely everywhere
G C
The sights, the sounds
B
They're everywhere and all around
C
I've never felt this good before
Em C
This empty place inside me has been filling up
Em C
I simply cannot get enough
Em C
I want it, oh, I want it
Em C
Oh, I want it for my own
C
I've got to know
Am
I've got to know
E F
What is this place that I have found?
G E G G
What is this?
