Christmas Songs  -  The Christmas Song

By axehappy  -  axehappy at countrytabs.com


Ok, I really don't know this song very well at all...
So if the song structure is off, I'm sorry.. I don't really know where
each verse/chorus is supposed to be sung or how many times..
I haven't tabbed any particular version of this song, I just followed the 
melody in my head, and put chords along to it.
As such, it may sound totally crappy... but PLEASE let me know!!

****************************************************************************



E         F#m7           Abm7      Bm7
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire 	 
Amaj7      Ab7             Dbm  Ebdim
Jack Frost nipping at your nose 	 
E        F#m7         Abm7      Db9
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir 	 
    Abmaj7        D7          Gmaj7  B9
And folks dressed up like eskimos


          E       F#m7            Abm7      Bm7  	 
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe 	 
Amaj7   Ab7             Dbm   Ebdim
Help to make the season bright 	 
E    F#m7            Abm7     Db9
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
     F#m7    Fm7     B7    B6   E
Will find it hard to sleep to - night


               Bm7            Amaj7
They know that Santa's on his way
              Bm7                             Amaj7
He's bringing lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
          C            D          Gmaj7
And every mother's child is gonna spy
          F#7             Edim        B7
To see if reindeer really know how to fly


    E      F#m7          Abm7        Bm7   	 
And so I'm offering this simple wish
   Amaj7     Ab7           Dbm  Ebdim
To kids from one to ninety-two
  E                F#m7      Abm7        Db9
Although it's been said many times, many ways 	 
      F#m7     B6  E
Merry Christmas to you

Firstly, this is the best arrangement you
will find on the net for this song. Wicked
job Axe!! I like using A B9 instead of Bm7
but that's just a personal preferance
thing. Excellent job!!
