E minorEm BB
Christmas is about having a whole week off from school
E minorEm BB
Christmas is all family-time and cheer
E minorEm BB
It's strands made out of popcorn and a fire made out of Yule
E minorEm BB
And why there aren't candy canes all year
E minorEm A minorAm
But these days it's all different, because these days she's around
E minorEm BB
She's cute and small and everyone adores her
E minorEm BB
The true meaning of Christmas was to watch me open presents,
A minorAm BB E minorEm
But Christmas ain't about me anymore
E minorEm BB
Christmas is about sitting still in church for days
E minorEm BB
Christmas is about never complaining
E minorEm BB
Two years ago my presents filled up Santa Claus' whole sleigh
E minorEm BB
But by last year my haul had started waning
E minorEm A minorAm
And this year I'll get only toys that match the ones she gets
E minorEm BB
Or slightly larger versions of the outfits she ignores
E minorEm BB
Because the true meaning of Christmas was to watch me open presents,
A minorAm BB E minorEm
But Christmas ain't about me anymore
BB E MajorE
I don't want to brag but I can walk way better than she can
BB E MajorE
Look at me a second cause I know a bunch more words
A augmentedA E MajorE BB
I do cartwheels, I can spell and I've been working on the Macarena
BB
Doesn't that impress you?
E minorEm A minorAm
Nothing makes a difference, because these days she's around
E minorEm BB
Despite her many faults they all adore her
E minorEm BB
The true meaning of Christmas was to watch me open presents
A minorAm BB E minorEm
But Christmas ain't about me anymore
A minorAm BB E minorEm
Christmas ain't about me anymore
A minorAm BB E minorEm
Christmas ain't about me anymore
