Verse 1
(A major) Son, I just don't like
Christmas in the city.
It's too crowded and
it's too congested.
I'm (A minor) telling you (E flat major) man,
(G major) it ain't all that bad. (A major)
There's (A minor) something about
Christmas (G major) when in the city.
The (A minor) ugliest places have now
become pretty.
Colorful and decorated,
each year celebrated.
(A major) Some of us are joyful,
some are just frustrated.
(A minor) It's the season for (G major) all to be (A minor) jolly
A man on the corner dealin'
(G major) three -card (A minor) molly
Looks to be easy, it might be hard
On second thought, better get the
Christmas cards
I can't become a
Mickey on my way to the store
So many people I have to get
presents for
There's father, mother,
(G major) sisters and (A minor) brothers
Uncles, aunts,
grandparents and other
Relatives and friends I must include
The only time I am in the giving mood
comes once a year.
When all is well beyond the noise of the (G major) city,
you can always hear those (A major) bells. (A minor) (A major) (A minor)
(A major) (A minor)
(A major) (A minor) (A major)
The bell (A minor) s are a sign of
Christmastime,
Santa
Claus on the corner drinking wild
Irish roll
wine.
People takin' licks, dippin' up in
St.
Nick, don't mess with his
helper cause she's only
In the department store,
there's (G major) people galore
(A minor) 50 % off all sales on the first floor
Carolers caroling (G major) over the sound
A (A minor) lot of pretty girls who shop
downtown
Mothers and daughters, (G major) fathers and (A minor) son s
In the shoe store,
find (G major) two for one (A minor) pair
Snowballs thrown at the (G major) window of the (A minor) bus
A car going by, hitting you with (G major) slush
Be (A minor) careful not to pee
A (G major) guy named
(A minor) Pete ain't a person in the world
He could be
The best part about it is it feels so well
(G major) to be (A minor) a native of the city,
so again (G major) let's hear those (A major) bells. (A minor) (A major) (A minor) (A major) (A minor)
(A major) (A minor)
(A major)
(A minor)
Not like in the country where you might take a slate ride,
ride the horse and buggy but
You (G major) still gotta pay
(A minor) Clyde, paper fireplace held up with tape
And
Santa
Claus (G major) comes by fire escape
You have trees (A minor) decorated inside
Now, in the (A major) city,
(A minor) there's only one tree in the house
That my mother put together,
limb by limb
And you can't use popcorn
string as trim
Cause the rats like salt,
and roaches like (A major) butter
They hang around the tree like
bums in the (A minor) gutter
But the tree looks nice, the (G major) family's here
(A minor) And
Christmas comes, but only once a year
It's time to show joy,
touching hearts with toys
Reindeer and snowmen for girls
and boys to learn
Christmas the right way and
can't even spell
See your face show a smile worth (A major) while by
silver (A minor) (A major) (A minor) (A major) (A minor)
(A major) (A minor)
(A major) (A minor)
Hey
Troy hit the bell (E minor) (E major) (D major) (A minor) (E minor) (E major) (D major)
(G major) (A minor)
(G major) (E minor) (A minor) (D major) (A minor) (C major)
(A minor) (E minor) (E major) (D major) (E major)
(A minor) On
Christmas
Eve, all the presents I hid from those
who I chose to be treating as kids.
Can't wait to find out,
it's after twelve.
Try to catch
Santa and a couple of elves.
I gotta get something much (G major) better than my cousin,
the racetrack he (A minor) bought was his.
Now it's time to wait for
New
Year's
Eve, cause
Christmas blows like a winter breeze.
Soon all decorations will be gone,
one last cheer to bring the
New
Year on.
A
Merry
Christmas and
Happy
New
Year as well, I like gold but (A major) sil
ver I de (A minor) liver in the (A major) form of
Bell. (A minor) (A major) (A minor) (A major)
(A minor) (A major)
(A minor) (D major)
So (A minor) you see,
Christmas in the city ain't all that bad,
Marmello.
But I just don't like it.
What do you mean?
You see them (G major) girls over (A minor) there?
Heck yeah, man.
Well, look, that's a
Christmas present from me to you,
alright?
Alright, thanks.
Alright, cool. (G major)
(A minor) A
Merry
Christmas and a
(G major) Happy
New
(A minor) Year from
