The Christmas Song

CHRISTMAS SONG

Mel Torme, Robt.Wells (c) 1946

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire [C6 Dm7 /g Cmaj79 Dm7 /g]

Jack Frost nipping at your nose [C6 Gm7 C7 F E7]

Yuletide carols being sung by a choir [Am Fm6 C F#m7 B7]

And folks dressed up like Eskimos [E Fm7 Bb7 Eb]

Everybody knows [Dm7 G7 C]

a turkey and some mistletoe [Dm7 /g Cmaj7 Dm7 /g]

Help to make the season bright. [C Gm7 C7 F Bb9]

Tiny tots with their eyes all a-glow [Am Fm6 C B7]

Will find it hard to sleep tonight [Em7 A7 Dm7 G7 C]

They know that Santa's on his way; [Gm7 C9 Gm7 C9]

He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh. [Gm7 C9 Fmaj79]

And ev'ry mother's child is gonna spy [Fm7 Bb9 Ebmaj7]

To see if reindeer really know how to fly. [Am7 D7 G7 /g /a /b]

And so I'm offering this simple phrase [C6 Dm7 /g Cmaj79 Dm7 /g]

To kids from one to ninety-two; [C Gm7 C7 F Bb9]

Although it's been said many times, [Am7 Bb9 Cmaj7]

many ways [Ebdim]

"Merry Christmas to you." [Em7 Am7 Dm7 G7, Cmaj7]
