The Christmas Song

Hootie and The Blowfish

 DADA
 Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
 DAGGGm
 Jack Frost nipping at your nose        
 BmBmGmDDDG#mC#
 Yuletide carols being sung ba choir                
 F#mBmEmADA
 And folks dressed up like Eskimos                   

 D
 Everybody knows
 ADA
 a turkey and some mistletoe 
 DAGGGm
 Help to make the season bright.      
 BmBmGmDDDG#mC#
 Tiny tots with their eyes all a-glow
 F#mBmEmAD
 Will find it hard to sleep tonight  

 AmAm
 They know that Santa's on his way;
 AmAmG
 He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh.
 GmCF
 And ev'ry mother's child is gonna spy
 BmEA
 To see if reindeer really know how to fly.

 DADA
 And so I'm offering this simple phrase
 DAGGGm
 To kids from one to ninety-two 
 BmADBmEmA
 Although it's been saimany times, many ways
 DBmEmADA
 "Merry Christmas to you."
