D G I know what you're doing to me, boy D G You move so fast like a psychopathic color TV D G With your Christmas bag and your jolly face D G And the reindeer stomping all over the place Take it easy, what you got to be so absurd? You make it sound like Christmas is a four-letter word It's a fact of life whether you like it or not So put your hands together and give it a shot Chorus: D# A# F Gm I hope that you take it to heart, boy D# A# F Gm It's Christmas time, ain't no clowning around D# A# F Gm And if you think you got something to prove, boy D# A# F Gm Santa Claus is coming to town I don't care about family and shopping malls Candy canes or the carolers decking the halls I don't care about what you say, Santa Claus You're a bad brother breaking into peoples' garages! You got it wrong 'cause I'm just another regular guy With superpowers and a penchant for the Yuletide Is it a crime to give a little once in a while? I travel 'round the world trying to make people smile Chorus D Am F G C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S, C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S F G F G C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S, C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S Am F G Dm C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S, C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S G Am G C D C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S, C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S D A C G A# F Christmastime, Christmastime, Christmastime C D We're having a good time D A C G A# F Christmastime, Christmastime, Christmastime C D We're having a good time!
