made up of these three words that I must say to you.

no harvest moon to light one tender August night.

no giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring. 
            Bbm  Bbm7            Bbm  Bbm7 
But what it is, though old, so new. 
             Bbm                  Eb                Ab 
to fill your heart like no three words could ever do.
