Happy Holidays everyone. May music keep you company and warm at heart through this most difficult time. Christmas Next Year will give us a chance to look back and sigh with new hope and relief. Stay Healthy and Inspored. Look up at the stars!


Notes on the stems: I’ve included the stems in a .zip file. They are nofx, no eq or anything. straight from the board.

The preview mp3 is eq’d and compressed and includes the harmony parts in the first chorus only.

There are two trumpet tracks in the stems too. very rough, but you might be able to find some notes in there for color. ANd the acoustic guide track, which is not keeper imho, but it may help guide you along your way.

All the best to you in the coming year.


Christmas Next Year

Like a blanket on the town
Snow is falling on the ground
And everyone has drifted off to sleep

I’m still awake it’s late at night
Staring in the firelight
Dreaming of us gathered round the tree

The card you sent was sweet and sincere
Sorry we can’t come home for Christmas this year
We send our love and all our good cheer
We’ll be home with you for Christmas next year

WIth Jack Frost on the window pane
Colored lights and candy canes
reminded of our festive memories

But this year’s winter holiday
We’ll have to find another way
To make the season bright and full of peace

Your gifts were left outside the door
We got your message the day before
The card you sent is on the mantlepiece

Dawn is rising on the day
Where Santa’s reindeer pulled his sleigh
Across the sky of all the children’s dreams

The card you sent was sweet and sincere
Sorry we can’t come home for Christmas this year
We send our love and all our good cheer
We’ll be home with you for Christmas next year

Like a blanket on the town
Snow has covered all the ground
And everyone is waking from their dreams
