The streets are filled with Christmas cheer

At least it's only once a year

D       G       A                 Bm
Perfect parcels tied with perfect bows,

    E                    A
And carols ringing in my ear

    Dmaj7      Cmaj7       Dmaj7   Cmaj7
I'm bundled up against the cold

Dmaj7          Cmaj7     Dmaj7   Cmaj7
Lines wherever gifts are sold

D         G          A                Bm
Each shop window displays a Christmas scene

For everybody young and old


CHORUS:

D          Em               Bm            G
Icicles on eavestroughs and tinsel on the tree,

But it's a green Christmas for me

Makin' angels on the lawn [makin' angels on the lawn]

D        G       A            Bm
Five red mittens drying on the rad

And needles shedding tannenbaum

D               Em           Bm                G
Red bows on the railings and snowflakes on the ground,

But it's a green Christmas in this town

Green, cos of everything I miss

         D                  G
All this mistletoe, no kiss

           G                   D
And with every Christmas wish

            G                  E
There would be no greater gift

         A  (let ring)
Than to have this envy lift

Don't wanna hear them anymore

Stockings on the mantle

The snow's here everyday

Red nose on the reindeer and tinsel on the tree
