EMPTY CHAIR AT THE CHRISTMAS TABLE
(Wills / Johnson / Sundin)


Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys 
(vocal: Tommy Duncan) - 1945




 
There's a broken toy in the stockin'
Hangin' there on the Christmas Tree
And a story's told by a star of gold
And the light on the Christmas Tree
 
Bless all the angels up in heaven
May they watch o'er him, oh, so tenderly
There's an empty chair at the table
And a light on the Christmas Tree

(Instrumental Break)
 
Heads bowed in prayer to ask His blessing
For that one still so dear to you and me
There's an empty chair at the table
And the light on the Christmas Tree
