[F] [F5] [C] [C5] x3
(6/8 time) [C] [F] [G] x4

[VERSE 1]
[C]When I was [Em]small I [Am]believed in [G]Santa Claus
[C]'Though I [Em]knew it [Am]was my [G]dad
[C]And I would [Em]hang up my [Am]stocking at [G]Christmas
[C]Open my [Em]presents and [Am]I'd be [G]glad

[BRIDGE 1]
[Am]But the [G]last time I [F]played Father [Em/B]Chris[Em]tmas
[Am]I stood out[G]side a de[F]partment [E]store
[C] [C9] [G/B] Am7addD [G]
A gang of kids came over and mugged me
[C] [G/B] [G] [G5] (Vamp 2 measures)
They knocked my reindeer to the floor...

[CHORUS 1]
...and said: [F]Fat[F5]her [C]Christ[C5]mas [F]give [F5]us some [C]mo[C5]ney
Don't [F]mess [F5] a-[C]round [C5]with t[F]hose silly [G]toys
We'll [F]beat[F5] you [C]up if [C5]you [F]don't[F5] hand it[C] o[C5]ver
We wa[F]nt yo[F5]ur [C]bread [C5]so don't make us [G]annoyed

Give all the toys
to the little rich [C]boys

[BRIDGE 2]
[Am]But give[G] my daddy a [F]job 'cos he ne[Em/B]eds o[Em]ne
[Am]He's got lo[G]ts of mou[F]ths to[E] feed
[C] [C9] [G/B] Am7addD [G]
And if you've got one I'll have a machine gun
[C] [G/B] [G] [G5] (Vamp 2 measures)
So I can scare all the kids on the street

[CHORUS 3]
