E            A   E       A
Twenty-third of December
 E      A    E     A
Covered in snow
 E       A  E     A
You in the kitchen
          A               E
With the lights way down low

I'm in the parlor
Playing my old guitar
Speaking to you, darling
To find out how you are

Chorus:
         A   E                A        E
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
        A   E     A         E
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight
         A   E                A        E
I wanna roo you, wanna get through to you
        A   E     A         E
I wanna woo you, woo you tonight

Come to me softly
Come to me quiet
Know what I'm after
I'm gonna try it

Snowstorm's on the way
And we'll be stranded for a week
Come over to the window
Look outside, take a peek

Chorus

B              A
You know I am lonely
B              A
And in need of your company
B             A                  G#m     B7
Oh, let your love light shine on down on me

And we can just sit here
Look at the fire
Watch the flames leaping
Higher and higher

There's tea on the stove
Food in the pan
Ain't going nowhere
And we don't have many plans

Chorus

And you know I am lonely
I been in need of your company
Let your love, let your love
this morning shine on down on me

Chorus

Pretty baby
Woo you tonight, little darling
Woo you tonight, alright
Woo you tonight
