Lyrics

Oh, by gosh, by gol ly, it’s time for mis tle toe and hol ly,

tas ty pheas ants, Christ mas pres ents, coun try sides cov ered with snow.

Oh, by gosh, by jin gle, it’s time for car ols and Kris Krin gle,

o ver eat ing, mer ry greet ings from rel a tives you don’t snow.

know.

Then comes the big night,

giv ing the tree the trim,

you’ll hear voic es by star light

sing ing a yule tide hymn.

folks steal a kiss or two as they whis per, “Mer ry Christ mas to you.”

This page shows “Mistletoe And Holly” by Frank Sinatra in our color-coded kid songbook view — every note is colored by pitch (red C, orange D, yellow E, green F, blue G, purple A, pink B) and the lyrics sit directly under each note, so children can sing along while they play. The song is in the key of C at 104 BPM, a slightly more challenging arrangement — practice each phrase slowly first.

  • Start at 50% tempo using the BPM control. Speed up only when your child can play through without stopping.
  • Turn on the metronome from the top bar to build steady rhythm.
  • Use the segmented OFF / C / 1 button to toggle note labels on the staff and keys — kids learn note names faster with letters showing.
  • Tap a measure number on the timeline to jump to a specific section for repeat practice.
