Christmas Song
Jethro Tull

Capo I

C Am C G/C  Am G C

C       G     D       Am  Asus2  Asus4 Am
Once in Royal David's City
C       G      D      Am  Asus2  Asus4  Am
stood a lonely cattle shed,
C       G      D        Am  Asus2  Asus4 Am
where a mother held her baby.
         C         G          D               Am  Asus2  Asus4  Am
You'd do well to remember the things He later said.

C           G                   D                Am    Asus2  Asus4 Am
When you're stuffing yourselves at the Christmas parties,
C           G            D                  Am          Asus2  Asus4 Am
you'll just laugh when I tell you to take a running jump.
C      G           D                            Am    Asus2  Asus4 Am
You're missing the point I'm sure does not need making
C              G         D            Am  Asus2  Asus4 Am
that Christmas spirit is not what you drink.

C              G               D            Am    Asus2  Asus4 Am
So how can you laugh when your own mother's hungry,
C               G              D                       Am   Asus2  Asus4 Am
and how can you smile when the reasons for smiling are wrong?
C             G               D           Am       Asus2  Asus4 Am
And if I just messed up your  thoughtless pleasures,
C                G           D                  Am    Asus2  Asus4 Am
remember, if you wish, this is just a Christmas song.

Hey, Santa, pass us that bottle over there, will you?
