  Old Christmas Card - Recorded by Jim Reeves

  

  (I don't know who wrote the song.  I do it in the key of G

  and in 4/4 time.)

  

             G                        C         G

  There's an Old Christmas Card in an old dusty trunk

         D7                                 G

  And it brings back sweet mem'ries dear to me

            G                       C               G

  'Tho it's faded and worn, it's as precious as the morn

          D7                                 G

  When I found it 'neath our first Christmas tree

  

  

  Chorus:

    D7                            G

  I thrill with every word, every line

            A7                             D7

  Guess I'm always sentimental 'round this time

         G                    C                G

  Pardon me if a tear falls among my Christmas cheer

           D7                         G

  It's the mem'ry of an Old Christmas Card

  

  

  (Recitation)

  

  You know, I don't know why I get to feeling sentimental

  

  about this time, every year

  

  But every time I see a Christmas card,

  

  I somehow can't help reminiscing

  

  About the very first Christmas that you and I spent together

  

  What a beautiful Christmas card you gave me that year

  

  Why I know you must have looked through thousands of cards

  

  To find that wonderful poem that still brings a tear to my eyes

  

  

  Repeat chorus
