Christmas Wrapping Waitresses
[E] [A] Strum Two Verses
(A) "Bah, humbug!" No, that's too strong
'Cause it (A) is my favorite holiday
But (D) all this year's been a busy blur
Don't (C) think I have the (B) energy
To (A) add to my already mad rush
Just (A) 'cause it 'tis the season.
The (D) perfect gift for me would be
Com(C)pletions and con(B)nections left from
(A) Last year, ski shop,
En(A)counter, most interesting.
(D) Had his number but never the time
(C) Most of '81 passed a(B)long those lines.
So (A) deck those halls, trim those trees
(A) Raise up cups of Christmas cheer,
(D) I just need to catch my breath,
(E) Christmas by my(A)self this year.
[A] [A] [E] [A] (A) Calendar picture, frozen landscape,
(A) Chilled this room for twenty-four days,
(D) Evergreens, sparkling snow
(C) Get this winter over with! (B)
Flashback to (A) springtime, saw him again,
(A) Would've been good to go for lunch,
(D) Couldn't agree when we were both free.
We (C) tried, we said we'd (B) keep in touch.
(A) Didn't, of course, 'til summertime,
(A) Out to the beach to his boat could I join him?
(D) No, this time it was me,
(C) Sunburn in the (B) third degree.
(A) Now the calendar's just one page
And, of (A) course, I am excited.
To(D)night's the night, I've set my mind
Not to (E) do too much a(A)bout it.
[A] [A] [E] [A] [D] [D] [G] [G] [D] [D] [G] [Bm] [E] [Bm]Merry (A) Christmas! Merry (A) Christmas!
But I (E) think I'll miss this (A) one this year.
Merry (A) Christmas! Merry (A) Christmas!
But I (E) think I'll miss this (A) one this year.
Merry (A) Christmas! Merry (A) Christmas!
But I (E) think I'll miss this (A) one this year.
Merry (A) Christmas! Merry (A) Christmas!
But I (E) think I'll miss this (A) one this year.
(A) Hardly dashing through the snow
(A) 'Cause I bundled up too tight.
(D) Last minute, had to do
A few (C) cards, a few (B) calls,
Because it's (A) R. S. V. P.
(A) No thanks, no party lights.
It's (D) Christmas Eve, gonna relax,
(C) Turned down all of (B) my invites.
Last (A) fall I had a night to myself,
(A) Same guy called, Halloween party,

(C) This time his car (B) wouldn't go.
For(A)get it, it's cold, it's getting late,
(A) Trudge on home to celebrate
In a (D) quiet way, unwind
(E) Doing Christmas (A) right this time.
[A] [A] [E] [A] (A) A&P has provided me
With the (A) world's smallest turkey
Al(D)ready in the oven, nice and hot
Oh (C) damn! Guess what (B) I forgot?
So (A) on with the boots, back out in the snow
To the (A) only all-night grocery,
When (D) what to my wondering eyes should appear
In the (C) line is that guy I've been (B) chasing all year!
"I'm (A) spending this one alone," he said.
"Need a (A) break; this year's been crazy."
I (D) said, "Me too, but why are you?
You mean (C) you forgot cran(B)berries too?"
Then (A) suddenly we laughed and laughed
Caught (A) on to what was happening
That (D) Christmas magic's brought this tale
To a (E) very happy (A) ending!
