Grown Up Christmas List Amy Grant
Grown-Up Christmas List - Amy Grant
Whew..this will go down in the record books as one of the hardest
songs ever to pick out! I tried to get it as close as possible
to the complex piano chords on the recording.
**Play with a capo on 4 to match album key**
Do y[G]ou rem[D/F#]ember [Em]me, I sat up[D]on your k[C]nee
I w[C]rote to [G/B]you with c[Am]hildhood [Am7]fantasi[D]es
Well, I[G]'m all [D/F#]grown-up [Em]now and still need h[D]elp someh[C]ow
I'm n[C]ot a c[G/B]hild but [Am]my heart [Am7]still can d[D]ream
So h[G]ere's my [D/F#]lifelong [Em]wish, my grown-up Ch[D]ristmas l[C]ist
Not f[C]or mys[G/B]elf but [Am]for a wo[Am7]rld in [D]need
Chorus:
[E]No more l[C#m]ives torn ap[A]art
That w[B]ars would never s[G#m7]tart
And [C#m]time would heal all he[A]arts[B]
[E]And every[C#m]one would have a f[A]riend
And r[B]ight would always [G#m7]win
And l[C#m]ove would [C#m7]never [C#m]e----[Eb]nd
[G#m7]This [C#m]is my g[A]rown-up C[B]hristmas l[E]ist[Esus] [E]
[C#m] [A] [B]
As c[G]hildren [D/F#]we bel[Em]ieved the grandest s[D]ight to s[C]ee
Was s[C]omething [G/B]lovely w[Am]rapped be[Am7]neath our t[D]ree
Well H[G]eaven [D/F#]surely [Em]knows that packag[D]es and b[C]ows
Can n[C]ever h[G/B]eal a h[Am]urting h[Am7]uman s[D]oul
CHORUS
[E]What is this illusion called t[A]he innocence of youth
Maybe [C#m]only in our b[F#7]lind belief can we [B]ever find the t[Cmaj7]ruth
(key change)
[G#] [D#] [Fm] [Fm] [D#] [C#]

Last chorus:
[F]No more l[Dm]ives torn a[Bb]part
That w[C]ars would never s[Am7]tart
And [Dm]time would heal all h[Bb]earts[C]
[F]And every[Dm]one would have a f[Bb]riend
And r[C]ight would always [Am7]win
And l[Dm]ove would [Dm7]never [Dm]e--nd [F+]oh
[Am7]This [Dm]is my g[Bb]rown-up C[C]hristmas l[Am7]ist
