[Intro]
D6  A7  Bm7b5  A7

[Verse 1]
D6         A7            D6     
Chestnuts roasting on an open 
    G  A7
fire
D6         Am7              G   
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
F#7sus F#7

Bm       Gm           D6        
Yuletide carols being sung by a 
G#m   C#7
choir
    F#            Gm  C7       F
And folks dressed up like 
    A7
Eskimos

[Verse 2]
           D6     A7              
Everybody knows a turkey and some 
D6       G  A7
mistletoe
Continues after the ad
D6      Am7              G    
Help to make the season bright
F#7sus F#7

Bm      Gm             D6   
  Tiny tots with their eyes all 
      G#m C#7
aglow
     F#m     B7       Em7  A7   
Will find it hard to sleep   
D6   D Dsus D
tonight

[Chorus]
               Am7 D7            
They know that San-  ta's on his 
Am7 D7
way
            Am7              D7   
He's loaded lots of toys and 
           Gmaj7
goodies on his sleigh
          Gm7           C7         
And every mother's child  is gonna 
Fmaj7
spy
           Bm7             E7     
To see if reindeer really know how
    A7   Em9/A A7
 to fly

[Verse 3]
    D6     A7            D6  
And so I'm offering this simple 
          G  A7
phrase
   D6        Am7            G   
To kids from one to ninety-two
F#7sus F#7

Bm7                Gm         D6
Although it's been said many 
         G#m  C#7
times, many ways
      F#m       Em  A7  D6   D 
Merry Christmas     to you
Dsus D
