Lyrics & Chords

INTRO 

Am Fm6  C B7  Em7 A Dm7 G7 C

1st VERSE 

C6           Dm7 - /G        Cmaj7     Dm7 - /G

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire

C6            Gm7 - C7       F   E7

Jack Frost nipping at your nose

Am         Fm6          C   F#m7 B7

Yuletide carols being sung by a choir

          E      Fm7 - Bb7 - Eb

And folks dressed up like Eskimos

2nd VERSE 

Dm7 - G7 - C

Everybody knows

     Dm7 - /G         Cmaj7  Dm7 - /G

a turkey and some mistletoe

C        Gm7 - C7           F          Bb9

Help to make the season bright

Am Fm6                C             B7

Tiny tots with their eyes all a-glow

     Em7 -   A7   - Dm7   - G7   - C

Will find it hard to sleep tonight

CHORUS 

               Gm7 C9           Gm7 C9

They know that Saaanta's on his way

             Gm7             C9              Fmaj79

He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh

              Fm7       Bb9       Ebmaj7

And ev'ry mother's child is gonna spy

           Am7               D7          G7  /A /B

To see if reindeer really know how to fly

   C6         Dm7 /G        Cmaj79       Dm7 /G

And so I'm offering this simple phrase

    C         Gm7   C7       F    Bb9

To kids from one to ninety-two

Am7                  Bb9          Cmaj7

Although it's been said many times

        Ebdim

many ways

      Em7 - Am7 - Dm7 - G7 - Cmaj7

"Merry Christmas        to you."
