[Verse 1]
C
Oh no, the rugged soul,
F
The great back yard, and the cold North Pole
C                           F
I resent that Santa went and left us in the Alamo
F                                  C
Would you like to stay a while and dance with me?
C                                    F
Would you like to wrap the gifts and have a drink?

[Chorus]
Bb
The only one condition, (I know the one)
F
I've got the premonition (I've got a clue)
Dm7                         C
That Christmas is a vision, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
Bb
If drinking makes it easy (so pass one here)
F
The music's kind of cheesy (and sing a cheer)
Dm7
The specials on the TV (especially)
C
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
C
The dreams go, and stay below
F
The cattle call, and the old dark soul
C                           F
I respect that Santa left to save his kids from the winter cold
F                                  C
Would you like to stay a while and dance with me?
C                                 F
Mistletoe, and chestnuts roasting on the street

[Chorus]
Bb
The only one condition, (I know the one)
F
I've got the premonition (I've got a clue)
Dm7                         C
That Christmas is a vision, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
Bb
If drinking makes it easy (so pass one here)
F
The music's kind of cheesy (and sing a cheer)
Dm7
The specials on the TV (especially)
C
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

[Outro]
Bb     F                         Gm
No one save you from Christmas's past
               F                        Bb
You'll have to love it, or leave it at last
