The structure of Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” is engineered so you listen to the entire song.

The only times the song’s first verse uses the G-major chord is at the very beginning and the very end... As listeners, we won’t feel relaxed until we hear the song return to that “home” chord.
