Gm
Scrooge, remember Marley
F
Your old partner and friend?
Dm
Just thought I'd drop by
Eb
I was in the area
Gm
Remember Jacob Marley
F
Your old partner who's dead?
Dm
You're in for one crazy night
Eb
Just to prepare ya
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Gm F
Life on the other side isn't a party
Dm Eb
At least not for Marley, alright?
Gm F
I come from the other side to give you a warning
Dm Eb
That before the morning light
[Chorus 1]
Gm
You'll be haunted by 3 spirits
F
3 spirits
Dm Eb
So Scrooge you've gotta listen 'cause they're coming for you
Gm
Talking about 3 spirits
F
3 spirits
Dm Eb
Christmas Spirits on a mission and they'rе gunning for you
[Verse 2]
Gm
Who are you, again?
F
Scrooge, don't pretеnd, I'm Marley, I'm your dead friend
Dm
I won't believe it, don't wanna hear it
Eb
No way, am I your first spirit?
Gm
You're just indigestion
F
What a suggestion, to a ghost, that's pretty offensive
Dm
You're just a nightmare
Eb
I'll stop you right there - Fine! You're real
N.C.
What do I care?
Gm
Scrooge I was like you in life
F
Cared only 'bout myself
Dm Eb
And continuing success in our profession
Gm F
My spirit never grew in life, I only grew my wealth
Dm Eb
And you've probably guessed, but yes I'm not in heaven
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Gm
These scary chains I wear
F
Are also around you
Dm Eb
They've already bound you tight
Gm
My scary fate you'll share
F
Unless you can wake up
Dm
And listen to Jacob
Eb
'Cause tonight
[Chorus 2]
Gm
You'll be haunted by 3 spirits(3 spirits)
F
3 spirits(3 spirits)
Dm
So Scrooge you gotta listen
Eb
'cause they're coming for you(coming for you)
Gm
Talking about 3 spirits (3 spirits)
F
3 spirits (3 spirits)
Dm Eb
Spirits on a mission and they're gunning for you (gunning for you)
[Verse 3]
Gm
The first one will come when the clock strikes "One"
F
If they all came together it could save some time
Dm
They'll be done before the morning sun
Eb
And you might have a chance to save your life
Gm
Jacob do you need to be
F
So over-the-top and mean to me?
Dm
Scrooge we lived so greedily
Eb
And indecently, did we need to be?
[Bridge]
Cm F
Now I'm doomed to float among the living
D7 Gm
To see the life I could have lived, but didn't
Cm F
Seeing all the love and the kindness and forgiving
D7 Gm
Regretting every wasted hour and minute
Cm F
Scrooge, learn a lesson from my mistakes
Bb Bdim
Hear my message and confession: your soul's at stake
Cm F
For your own sake, listen to Jake
D7
'Cause tonight, before day breaks
[Chorus 3]
Gm
You'll be haunted by 3 spirits (3 spirits)
F
3 spirits (3 spirits)
Dm
So Scrooge you gotta listen
Eb
'cause they're coming for you (coming for you)
Gm
Talking about 3 spirits (3 spirits)
F
Oh, 3 spirits (3 spirits)
Dm Eb
Christmas spirits on a mission and they're gunning for you (gunning for you)
[Outro]
Gm
Marley's dancing in the moonlight
F
But it's time for him to go
Dm
And he flies away into the night
Eb
Jumping right through the window
Gm
Joining a hundred other ghosts
F
As they fly all about
Dm
Scrooge lets go of his bedpost
Eb
And passes out
