Verse 2
E
I guess the brothers
F#m
are driving down from Queensland
E
And Stella's flying in
F#m
from the coast
E
They say it's gonna be
F#m
a hundred degrees, even more maybe
E
F#m
But that won't stop the roast
A
G#m
Who's gonna make the gravy now?
A
I bet it won't taste
B
the same
E
F#m
Just add flour, salt, a little red wine
And don't forget
E
a dollop of tomato sauce
F#m
For sweetness and that extra tang
Chorus 1
E
And give my love to Angus,
F#m
and to Frank and Dolly
E
Tell 'em all I'm sorry,
F#m
I screwed up this time
E
And look after Rita,

I'll be thinking of her

Early Christmas morning
F#m
when I'm standing in line

E
F#m
I hear Mary's got a new boyfriend
E
F#m
I hope he can hold his own
E
Do you remember the last one?
F#m
What was his name again?
E
Ahh, just a little
F#m
too much cologne
A
And Roger, you know
G#m
I'm even gonna miss Roger
A
'Cause there's sure as hell
B
no one in here I want to fight
Chorus 2
E
Oh, praise the Baby Jesus,
F#m
have a Merry Christmas
E
I'm really gonna miss it,
F#m
all the treasure and the trash
E
And later in the evening
F#m
I can just imagine
E
You'll put on Junior Murvin
F#m
and push the tables back
Chorus 3
E
And you'll dance with Rita,
F#m
I know you really like her
E
Just don't hold her too close
F#m
Oh, brother, please don't stab me in the back
E
I didn't mean to say that,
F#m
it's just my mind it plays up
E
Multiplies each matter,
F#m
turns inagination into fact
Chorus 4
E
You know I love her badly,
F#m
she's the one to save me
E
I'm gonna make some gravy,
F#m
I'm gonna taste the fat
E
Ahh, tell her that I'm sorry,
F#m
yeah, I love her badly,
E
Tell 'em all I'm sorry,
F#m
and kiss the sleepy children for me
E
You know one of these days,
F#m
I'll be making gravy
E
I'll be making plenty,
F#m
I'm gonna pay 'em all
