Most of the tabs on here for this song are 99% accurate, but there's a few instances of chords being
in the wrong places or chords that simply fit better. I've also added in the post-chorus
sections, the small sections in the middle of the verses and and the bridge bit.
Hope you enjoy!
As a side note, this is my first tab, so any helpful comments or feedback are greatly appreciated!
For strumming, I've added a few notes in places. If there's no notes, strum normally.

It was the night before Christmas, it was love at first sight

A couple years later he was out on the road
F#m E
Having Christmas dinner in a diner alone

When he saw a young waitress with a gleam in her eye
F#m E A
Her favorite day of the year she showed her spirits were high
D A
She said sir can you shed a little holiday cheer
F#m E
A simple Christmas story was all she wanted to hear
A D
He looked prepared with a smile as he started to say
F#m E A
here's my favorite Christmas story about a girl with no name
[Chorus 2]

He said I met her up in Delaware in 1937

A D
By age 53 he had done settled down
F#m E
All the neighborhood kids liked to gather around
A D
Just to listen to his stories about his life on the road
F#m E A
All he had now were these children he told
D A
And every Christmas eve they showed up before dark
F#m E
He'd tell them all the story but they knew it by heart
A D
They could quote it word for word, he always told it the same.
F#m E
It was his favorite Christmas story called the girl with no name
[Chorus 3]

He said I met her up in Delaware in 1937

Twenty years later as he took his last breath

It was on a cold Christmas morning on a hospital bed
A D
The children were grown, he had nobody left
F#m E A
Except the little old nurse who was holding his hand
(Strum softly / Pick individual strings as you play them. Listen to song for better idea.)
D A
He said Ma'am can you share a little holiday cheer
F#m E
A simple Christmas story was all he wanted to hear
A D
But his eyes filled with tears at the words that she spoke
F#m E A
Because his favorite Christmas story was the one that she told
[Chorus](Soft strumming)

Though I never caught his name he was a traveling man

December 24th at a quarter till eleven

I'm so glad he got the courage to ask me to dance.
