(F)Haul out the hol ly, put up the tree be (Am)fore my spi rit (D7)falls a gain.

Fill (C7)up the (Gm)stock ing.

For we (Gm7)need a lit tle (C7)Christ mas, (Fmaj7)right this ver y (F6)min ute, (Gm7)can dles in the (C7)win dow, (F)car ols at the spin et.

Yes, we (Gm7)need a lit tle (C7)Christ mas, (Fmaj7)right this ver y (F6)min ute.

It (G7)has n’t snowed a sin gle flur ry, but (C7)San ta, dear, we’re in a hur ry.

So, (F)climb down the chim ney, turn on the bright est (Am)string of lights I’ve (D7)ev er seen.

Slice (C7)up the (Gm)fruit cake.

It’s time we (Gm7)hung some tin sel on that (Gm)ev er (C7)green (Eb)bough.

For I’ve (Gm7)grown a lit tle (C7)lean er, (Fmaj7)grown a lit tle (F6)cold er, (Gm7)grown a lit tle (C7)sad der, (F)grown a lit tle old er and I (Gm7)need a lit tle (C7)an gel (Fmaj7)sit ting on my (F6)shoul der.

So, (Gm7)need a lit tle (C7)Christ mas (F)now.

(G)Haul out the hol ly.

For once I’ve taught you all to live each liv ing day.

Fill (D7)up the (Am)stock ing.

But, Aun tie (Am7)Mame, it’s one week past Thanks (Am7)giv ing (D7)Day (Dm6)now.

But we (Am7)need a lit tle (D7)Christ mas, (Gmaj7)right this ver y (Em7)min ute, (Am7)can dles in the (D7)win dow, (G)car ols at the spin et.
