D
There's a wondrous sight and a joyful sound
D A7
Every Christmas Eve in a western town
D
Gather up the kids, all the friends and family
D
'Cause the holly's hung and the candle's bright
D A7
there tuning up a fiddle on a moonlit night
A7 D
Roll back the rug so we can two step 'round the Christmas tree
[Verse 2]
D
There's a jolly man in a bright red suit
D A7
Did you ever see a Santa in cowboy boots?
A7 D
Twirling across the floor, spurs a-jingling merrily
D
As they sing those carols soft and low
A7
We'll all be shouting out, "Cotton-Eyed Joe!"
D
Roll back the rug so we can two step 'round the Christmas tree
[Chorus]
G D A D
Waiting 'neath the mistletoe you'll never get a kiss
F#7 Bm E A
I never move that slow, there's too much I could miss
D A7
'Cause a western guy can't be still, and a silent night is not for me
D
Roll back the rug so we can two step 'round the Christmas Tree
[Verse 3]
D
Red bandanas, chili green
A7
Silver buckles on new blue jeans
D
Jumpin' 'round the room to a yuletide melody
I'm gonna be ready when Santa comes
A7
But I'm gonna be dancing 'til he does
D
Roll back the rug so we can two step 'round the Christmas tree
[Chorus]
G D A D
Waiting 'neath the mistletoe you'll never get a kiss
F#7 Bm E A
I never move that slow, there's too much I could miss
D A7
'Cause a western guy can't be still, and a silent night is not for me
D
Roll back the rug so we can two step 'round the Christmas Tree
[Chorus]
G D A D
Waiting 'neath the mistletoe you'll never get a kiss
F#7 Bm E A
I never move that slow, there's too much I could miss
D A7
'Cause a western guy can't be still, and a silent night is not for me
D
Roll back the rug so we can two step 'round the Christmas Tree
[Outro]
A7 D
Roll back the rug so we can two step 'round the Christmas Tree
