Joe Offer Origins: Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas (30) ADDPOP: Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas 27 Dec 22


Here's my transcription of the 1957 Frank Sinatra recording. This is how I know the song.

HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS
(Ralph Blane and Hugh Martin)

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on
Our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on
Our troubles will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years
We all will be together
If the fates allow
So hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now


Songwriters: Ralph Blane / Hugh Martin
