G

[Verse 1]
1, 2, 3, 4
 G
Haul out the holly
 G                       Dm        E
Put up the tree before my spirit falls again
 Am            D
Fill up the stocking
           Am                D
I may be rushing things, but deck the halls again
Bm       E
now

[Chorus]
  G      Am               D       G              C
For we need a little Christmas, right this very minute
   Am              D      G
Candles in the window, carols at the spinet
          C                Am       G               Em
Yes, we need a little Christmas, right this very minute
      A                              D
It hasn't snowed a single flurry, Santa dear, we're in a hurry

[Verse 2]
     G
So climb down the chimney
                 G                 D          E
Turn on the brightest string of lights I've ever seen
  Am             D
Slice up the fruitcake
              Am              D
It's time we hung some tinsel on that evergreen
Bm        E
bough

[Chorus]
  G         Am             D      G              C
For I've grown a little leaner, grown a little colder
  Am             D       G
Grown a little sadder, grown a little older
        C             Am     G             Em
And I need a little angel sitting on my shoulder
  Am             G       Am
Need a little Christmas now

[Bridge]
G  C  Am  D
G  C  Am  D
E

[Chorus]
 G      Am             D      G              C
For we need a little music, need a little laughter
 Am              D       G
Need a little singing ringing through the rafter
        C               Am    G         Em
And we need a little snappy happy ever after
  Am              D      G
Need a little Christmas now
