  			C		 Dm7     G7	C   Dm7   G7  
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,  
C		 C7		   F      E7  
Jack Frost nipping at your nose,  
Am	    Fdim	       C   C/B     B7  
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir,  
      E		   Bb		  G    G7  
And folks dressed up like Eskimos;  

G          C       Dm7   G7	    C           Dm7   G7  
Ev'rybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe  
   C		C7		F       Bb9  
Helps to make the season bright;  
C   G			 C    C/B Cdim  
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow  
      Em7     A7      Dm7  G7    C   
Will find it hard to sleep tonight.  


	          Gm7 C9              Gm7   C9  
They know that Santa's on his way,  
		  Gm7		     C9             F7M  
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh;  
           Fm7		     Bb9          Cm   Cm7  
And ev'ry mother's child     is gonna spy  
          Am7             D5-/7	    G7  
To see if reindeer really know how to fly.  


    C	 Dm7        G7    C              Dm7   G7  
And so I'm offering this simple phrase,  
     C	    C7		    F       Bb9  
For kids from one to ninety two,  
    Am7             Fdim       C    C/B  Cdim  
Although it's been said many times, many ways,  
Fdim  C	  Am7  Dm7  G7  C        
Merry Christmas       to you.

    C 	 Dm7     G7       C              Dm7   G7

For kids from one to ninety two,
