C


[Verse 1]
C
All I want for Christmas is a length of rope
              G
To tie into a noose
G
So I can hang up everything I need to hang
                    C
It's good for every use
C
I could hang a wreath

I could hang a candy cane
                        F
I could hang some mistletoe
        F                        C
I could even hang a noose by the fire place
        D     G     C
With a holly jolly glow


[Chorus]
C
Hang yourself, hang yourself, hang yourself
                  F                  G
A little ornament upon the Christmas tree
G
Don't you wish you, don't you wish
                                     C
You were dedicated as Santa seems to be

End your life, end your life, end your life
                 F
Of sorrow, cause now's the time for cheer
    C                  G              F           C
And I hope that when I look under thе Christmas tree
              F         G       C
There'll be a noosе for me this year


[Verse 2]
C                                                         G
Now I know the noose has a real dark past that many folks abhor

But I think the time has come for us to change all that
                     C
And make it fun once more

After all, it's just a rope with a useful knot
         C      G       F
Like the one on Santa's sleigh (Ho, Ho, Ho)
    F                        C
So, lets all hang around the Christmas tree
         F                 G    C
And have ourselves a happy holiday


[Chorus]
C
Hang yourself, hang yourself, hang yourself
                   F                  G
A little ornament upon the Christmas tree
          G
Don't you wish you, don't you wish
                                    C
You were dedicated as Santa seems to be

End your life, end your life, end your life
                                     F
Of sorrow, cause now's the time for cheer
    C                  G              F           C
And I hope that when I look under thе Christmas tree
              F         G       C
There'll be a noosе for me this year
