[INTRO]
| [A7] [D7] [G7] [F#7] | [B7] [E7] [A7] |

[VERSE]
The [Dmaj7]jingle bells are [Em7]jingling
The [Dmaj7]streets are white with [A7#9]snow
The [Dmaj7]happy [Em7]crowds are [F#m7]mingl[G7]ing
But there's [D7]no one that I know
I'm [G7]sure that you'll forgive me
[D]If I [C7]don't ent[B7]huse
[E7] [A7] | [F#7] [B7] [E7] [A7] |
I guess I've got the Christmas blues

[VERSE]
I've [Dmaj7]done my window [Em7]shopping
There's [Dmaj7]not a store I've [A7#9]missed
But [Dmaj7]what's the [Em7]use of [F#m7]stopp[G7]ing
When there's [D7]no one on your list
You'll [G7]know the way I'm feeling
When [D]you love [C7]and you [B]lose
I [E7]guess I've got the [A7]Christmas [D7]blues

[BRIDGE]
[F#m7]When somebody [B7]wants you
[F#m7] Somebody [B7]needs you
[Em]Christmas is a [C/E]joy of [Em6]joy
But [G#m7]friends when you're [C#7]lonely
[G#m7]You'll find that it's [C#7]only
A [F#m7]thing for little [B7]girls[Em7] and little [A7]boys

[VERSE]
May [Dmaj7]all your days be [Em7]merry
Your [Dmaj7]seasons full of [A7#9]cheer
But '[Dmaj7]til it's [Em7]Janu[F#m7]a- [G7]ry
I'll just go [D7]and disappear
Oh [G7]Santa may have brought you
Some [D]stars for [C7]your [B7]shoes
[E7] [A7] | [F#7] [B7] |
But Santa only brought me the blues
[E7] [A7] | [D7] [G7] [F#7] | [B7] [E7] [A7] |
Those brightly packaged tinsel covered ... Christmas blues

[VERSE]
| [Dmaj7] [Em7] | [Dmaj7] [A7#9] |
(harmonica solo)
| [Dmaj7] [Em7] [F#m7] [G7] | [D7] |
(harmonica solo)
Oh [G7]Santa may have brought you
Some [D]stars for [C7]your [B7]shoes
[E7] [A7] | [F#7] [B7] |
But Santa only brought me the blues
[E7] [A7] | [D7] [F#7] [G7] | [B7] [E7] [A7] [D7]
Those brightly packaged tinsel covered ... Christmas blues
