F |
FI really like Christmas |
| Bb6 |
It's senti | Bb6mental I know |
| F |
But I just really | Flike it |
| Bb6 |
I'd rather | Bb6break bread with Dawkins than Desmond Tutu |
| C | C7 |
And yes I have | Call of the usual objections to consumer | C7ism |
| Bb6 |
The commercialisation of an ancient | Bb6religion |
To the westernisation of a dead Palestinian |
| F |
Press-ganged into selling Playstations and | Fbeer |
| C |
But I still really | Clike it |
F |
FI'm looking forward to Christmas |
| Bb6 |
Though I'm not ex | Bb6pecting |
| A | Dm |
My brother and sisters, my | Agran and my | Dmmum |
| F | Bb6 |
They'll be | Fdrinking white wine in the | Bb6sun |
| A | Dm |
My brother and sisters, my | Agran and my | Dmmum |
| F | Bb6 |
They'll be | Fdrinking white wine in the | Bb6sun |
F |
FI don't go in for ancient wisdom |
| Bb6 |
I dont believe | Bb6just cos ideas are tenacious |
| F |
It means they are | Fworthy |
F |
FI get freaked out by churches |
| Bb6sus4 | Bb6 |
Some of the | Bb6sus4hymns that they sing have nice | Bb6chords |
| F |
But the lyrics are | Fdodgy |
| C | C7 |
And yes I have | Call of the usual objections to misedu | C7cation |
| Bb6 |
Of children who in tax exempt insti | Bb6tutions are taught to externalise blame |
| F |
And to feel ashamed and to judge things as plain right or | Fwrong |
| C |
But I quite like the | Csongs |
F |
FI'm not expecting big presents |
| Bb6 |
The old combi | Bb6nation of socks, jocks and chocolate |
| C |
Cause I'll be seeing my | Cdad |
| A | Dm |
My brother and sisters, my | Agran and my | Dmmum |
| F | Bb6 |
They'll be | Fdrinking white wine in the | Bb6sun |
| A | Dm |
My brother and sisters, my | Agran and my | Dmmum |
| F | Bb6 |
They'll be | Fdrinking white wine in the | Bb6sun |
| Bb6 |
And | Bb6you my baby girl |
| F |
My | Fjetlagged infant daughter |
| Bb6 |
You'll be | Bb6handed round the room |
| Bb9 |
Like a | Bb9puppy at a primary school |
| Bb6 |
And | Bb6you won't understand |
| F |
But | Fyou will learn some day |
| Bb6 |
That | Bb6wherever you are and whatever you face |
Bb9 |
Bb9These are the people |
| A | Dm |
Who'll make you feel | Asafe in this | Dmworld |
| F | Bb6 |
My | Fsweet blue-eyed | Bb6girl |
| Bb6 |
And | Bb6if my baby girl |
| F |
When you're | Ftwenty one or thirty one |
| Bb6 |
And | Bb6Christmas comes around |
| Bb9 |
And you | Bb9find yourself nine thousand miles from home |
| Bb6 | F | Bb6 | C |
You'll | Bb6know | Fwhat | Bb6ever | Ccomes |
| C | A | Dm |
Your | Cbrothers and sisters and | Ame and your | Dmmum. |
| F | Bb6 |
Will be | Fwaiting for you in the | Bb6sun |
Bb9 | C |
Bb9Whenever you | Ccome |
Your brothers and sisters |
Your aunts and your uncles |
Your grandparents, cousins |
| A | Dm |
And | Ame and your | Dmmum |
| F | Bb6 |
