[Intro]
F x4
[Verse 1]
F I really like Christmas Bb F It’s sentimental I know, but I just really like it F I’m, I’m hardly religious Bb F I’d rather break bread with Dawkins than Desmond Tutu to be honest C C7 And yes I have all of the usual objections to consumerism Bb To the commercialisation of an ancient religion
To the western-isation of a dead Palestinian
F Press-ganged into selling PlayStations and beer C But I still really like it. F I’m looking forward to Christmas Bb F Though I’m not expecting a visit from Jesus C I’ll be seeing my dad C7 A7 Dm My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum Dm/C Bb They’ll be drinking white wine in the sun C I’ll be seeing my dad C7 A7 Dm My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum Dm/C Bb They’ll be drinking white wine in the sun.
[Verse 2]
F I don’t go in for ancient wisdom Bb F I don’t believe just ’cause ideas are tenacious it means that they’re worthy F I get freaked out by churches Bb F Some of the hymns that they sing have nice chords but the lyrics are dodgy C And yes I have all of the usual objections C7 Bb To the mis-education of children who in tax-exempt institutions
Are taught to externalise blame
And to feel ashamed
F And to judge things as plain right or wrong C But I quite like the songs. F I’m not expecting big presents Bb F The old combination of socks, jocks and chocolates is just fine by me. C ‘Cause I’ll be seeing my dad C7 A7 Dm My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum Dm/C Bb They’ll be drinking white wine in the sun C I’ll be seeing my dad C7 A7 Dm My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum Dm/C Bb They’ll be drinking white wine in the sun.
[Chorus]
Bb And you my baby girl F/A My jetlagged infant daughter Gm7 You’ll be handed round the room C Csus4 C Like a puppy at a primary school Bb And you won't understand F/A But you will learn some day Gm7 That wherever you are and whatever you face C C7 A7 Dm These are the people who’ll make you feel safe in this world Dm/C Bb My sweet blue-eyed girl
[Chorus]
Bb And if my baby girl F/A When you’re twenty-one or thirty-one Gm7 And Christmas comes around C Csus4 C And you find yourself nine thousand miles from home Bb F/A Gm7 C You’ll know what-ever---- comes C7 A7 Dm Your brothers and sisters, and me and your mum Dm/C Bb Will be waiting for you in the sun C Csus4 C whenever you come C7 Your brothers and sisters, your aunts and your uncles C7 A7 Dm Your grandparents, cousins, and me and your mum Dm/C Bb We’ll be waiting for you in the sun F/A Gm7 drinking white wine in the sun C Bb Darling, when xmas comes F/A Gm7 We’ll be waiting for you in the sun F/A Bb drinking white wine in the sun F/A Gm7 waiting for you in the sun C Bb waiting for you
[Interlude]
F/A
Gm7 (C7) Wa -------iting.
[Outro]
F I really like Christmas Bb F It’s sentimental I know.
