If We Make It Through De[Bb]cember ev'rything's gonna be alright I [F]know;
It's the cold[F7]est time of [Gm7]winter and I shiver when I [C7]see the falling [F]snow;
If We [F7]Make It Through De[Bb]cember,
Got plans to be a warmer town come [F]summer time;
Maybe [F7]even Cali[Gm7]fornia,
[C7]If We [Gm7]Make It Through De[C7]cember, we'll be [F]fine;
Got laid off down at the fa[Gm7]ct'ry
[C7]And their [Gm7]timing's not the gre[C7]atest in the [F]world;
Heaven know[F7]s I been [Gm7]working hard, [C7]wanted Chris[Gm7]tmas to be ri[C7]ght for daddy's gir[F]l;
[F7]I don't mean to hate De[Bb]cember,
It's meant to be the happy time of [F]year;
And my [F7]little girl don't [Gm7]understand why daddy can't afford[C7] no Christmas [F]here;
If We Make It Through De[Bb]cember ev'rything's gonna be alright I [F]know;
It's the cold[F7]est time of [Gm7]winter and I shiver when I [C7]see the falling [F]snow;
If We [F7]Make It Through De[Bb]cember,
Got plans to be a warmer town come [F]summer time;
Maybe [F7]even Cali[Gm7]fornia,
[C7]If We [Gm7]Make It Through De[C7]cember, we'll be [F]fine.[Eb] [Bb] [F]
