The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole

A     Bm7      C#m Dmaj7    (Bm7)
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire

A      Em7 / A7   Dmaj7       (G7)
Jack Frost nipping at your nose

A     G7        A  Ebm7   (D7)
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir

C#m     Dm7 G7 Cmaj7  Bm7   Dm
And folks dressed up like Eskimos...... everybody

A   Bm7    C#m  Dmaj7   (Bm7)
knows a turkey and some mistletoe

A    Em7 /  Fmaj  Dmaj7    (G7)
Help to make the season bright

A   G7       A    (Ebm7 / D7)
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow

C#m    Cmaj  Bm7  Dm     A
Will find it hard to sleep to....   night


Em7   A7   Dmaj7
They know that Santa’s on his way

Em7    A7       Dmaj7
He’s loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh

Dm7        G7      Cmaj7
And every mother’s child is gonna spy

B7             E7
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

A   Bm7        C#m  Dmaj7  (Bm7)
And so I’m offering this simple phrase

A      Em7 / A7  Dmaj7    (G7)
To kids from one to ninety-two

A     G7         A     (Ebm7 / D7)
Although it’s been said many times, many ways

C#m / Cmaj7 /   Bm7    E7 / A
 Merry Christmas........... to.. you      {on (A) strum slowly to fade}
