Capo 2

C                                                         G
Kin folks come and children by the dozen, a big happy family
G                                                                         C
Howdy & handshakes, how have you been's as we gather around the Christmas tree
      C                                                        C7       F
Uncle Joe’s gotta gift hid out by the woodshed, he thinks grandma can’t see
       F                        C                   G                      C
Little Jim’s gotta a train from old Saint Nick, the twins are on grandpa’s knee

Grandma’s been up since before daylight cooking up those Christmas treats
Makes my mouth water I just can’t wait for all the grownups to eat
When I got caught trying to steal me a bite, grandma shook her fist at me
Billy Bob’s under the mistletoe, he’s got plans for Martha McGee


Chorus:
     F                                                         C
It’s Christmas time at grandma’s house and something smells so sweet
                                                                         G
There’s turkey and dressing and mashed potatoes, apple pie and black eye peas
        F                                             C
It’s my very favorite day of all, no place I’d rather be
        C                                              G             C
There’s nothing like Christmas at grandma’s house down home in Tennessee  


Key change to C#

There’s stockings hung by the fireplace and a homemade holly reef 
An angel topped the Christmas tree still watches faithfully    
Then grandpa asks the blessing in his old fashion way
Thankful for the Savior’s birth and another Christmas day

Chorus
