This is the chords of This Christmas by Oh Wonder on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.

C                                     F                         C
There’s a million faces smiling in the street
C                                     F                   C
And a quiet hum sing winter melodies
C                   F                           C
Seems funny how the season brings a tear
C                                     F                         C
And I’m longing for the snow to disappear

Shut all the world out

Just you and me

[Verse 2]
C                                     F                                     C
There’s a taxi driving someone home tonight
C                   F                                     C
And a Christmas card that I will never write
C                                     F                   C
Wish I had that river I could skate away on
C                                     F                                   C
Wish I had you in my arms where you belong

[Pre-Chorus]
Am7
Hey now
C/E
If I close my eyes now
Dm7
Shut all the world out
Gsus4                   G
Just you and me
