Father Christmas Kinks
[G] [C]
When I was small I believed in Santa Claus
[G]'Though I knew it was my dad [D]
[G]And I would hang up my stocking at [C]Christmas
Open my presents and I'd be glad [D]
[Em]But the last time I [Bm]played Father Christmas
[Em] I stood outside a de[B]partment store
[G]A gang of kids came over and mugged me
They knocked my reindeer [D]to the floor, and said
F[C]ather [G]Christmas [C]give us some [G]money
[C]Don't mess a[G]round with those [C] silly t[D]oys
[C]We'll beat you [G]up if you [C]don't hand it [G]over
[C]We want your b[G]read so don't m[C]ake us ann[D]oyed
[C]Give all the toys[D]
To the little rich b[G]oys
[C] [D] [G] [C] [D]
Don't give my brother a Steve Austin outfit
Don't give my sister a cuddly toy
We don't want no jigsaw or monopoly money
We only want the real McCoy
But give my daddy a job cause he needs one
He's got lots of mouths to feed
And if got one I'll take a machine gun
So I can scare all the kids on the street.
[C] [G] [C] [G]
F[C]ather [G]Christmas [C]give us some [G]money
[C]Don't mess a[G]round with those [C] silly t[D]oys
[C]We'll beat you [G]up if you [C]don't hand it [G]over
[C]We want your b[G]read so don't m[C]ake us ann[D]oyed
[C]Give all the toys[D]
To the little rich b[G]oys
[C] [D] [G] [C] [D]
[g]
And have yourself a merry merry Christmas
Have yourself a good [D]time
[G]But remember the kids who got nothin
As your drinking down your [D]wine
Father Christmas give us some money
Don't mess around with those silly toys
Father Christmas please hand it over
We'll beat you up if you make us annoyed
Father Christmas give us some money
Don't mess around with those silly toys
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
We want your bread so don't make us annoyed
And give all the toys to e little rich boys.
Above is the basic arrangement of the song only. (I would recommend playing along with the song for the whole arrangement)
The "roots" of the chords are written, (You may need to change the f's, a's and e's to minor chords)
and u will hear the "c walkdown" change from c-b-a-g to c-e-a-g (during first verse)
