Two versions:

E                              B
I'll have a blue Christmas without you
           B7             E
I'll be so blue thinking about you
    E7         E        A               F#
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
                        B7                      B
Won't be the same dear, if you're not here with me
 
B7             E                     B
And when those blue snowflakes start falling
                  B7                  E
That's when those blue memories start calling
          E7        E                A            F#
You'll be doing all right, with your Christmas of white

Fantastic tabs, Loved the Capo 2 version, makes the walk down from the G chord to the E chord perfect. On the second version Capo 2, needs an E one the word 'white' in each verse.

This is one of my favorite songs from Elvis. I believe that the chords are GREAT!!!! It's not very often I play a song with the right chords. I love it!! Take Care and God Bless. Have a Merry Christmas :o)

I think its great..
