[Verse 1]
C                                    G
I just want to see my little kids on Christmas
G7                                   C
But I'm not so sure that my kids want to see me
C7                          F
They live with their mom in Alabama
G                                                  C
And I live with my girlfriend in Nashville, Tennessee


[Verse 2]
C                                            G
My Christmas-crazy girlfriend's parents love me
G7                                         C
And like her they're both full of yuletide cheer
C7                                 F
And warmly they expect me at their family Christmas party
G                                   F
So I go awhile and fake a smile and drink and drink and drink
G
And sit and think
G7
Man I wish my kids were here


[Bridge]
F
Christmas Eve come quickly
C
And Christmas morning go
G       G7
Cause I long to hand them presents
C       C7
And watch their faces glow
F
The judge says if I call them
C       C/B         A7
Then I'll go straight to jail
D7                                      G    G7
But I can send them presents through the mail


[Verse 3]
C
Now it's Christmas morning
G
And I can't get out of bed
G7                                         C
And I'm ruining her favorite day of the year
C7
She makes us both some breakfast
F                           Fm
And brings all the gifts to bed
G
So for her I try to go along
F                                 G
We hug and kiss and open gifts to Christmas songs
G7
But man I wish my k-
