[Verse 1]
        C majorC      A minorAm    DmDm    G+G    C majorC  A minorAm DmDm  G+G
Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring ting tingling too   Come on, it's
C majorC   A minorAm      DmDm      G+G      C majorC  Eb MajorEb  G+G
lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you,  Outside the
C majorC    A minorAm     DmDm     G+G      C majorC   A minorAm  DmDm   G+G
snow is falling and friends are calling "Yoohoo,"     Come on, it's
C majorC   A minorAm      DmDm      G+G      C majorC
lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.

[Chorus 1]
   F# minorF#m         B7B7      E MajorE          E6E6
Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up,let's go,  Let's look at the show,
F#m7F#m7       B7B7      E MajorE
We're riding in a wonderland of snow.
   E minor 7Em7         A7A7       D MajorD         D6D6
Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up,it's grand, Just holding your hand,
DmDm                    G7G7   Dm7Dm7  G7G7
  We're gliding along with a song in a wintry fairy land.

[Verse 2]
        C majorC    A minorAm    DmDm  G+G    C majorC  A minorAm  DmDm    G+G
Our cheeks are nice and rosy and comfy cozy are we      We're snuggled
C majorC  A minorAm     DmDm     G+G       C majorC A minorAm  Eb MajorEb   G+G
up together like birds of a feather would be    Let's take that
C majorC   A minorAm     DmDm   G+G     C majorC  A minorAm DmDm   G7G7
road before us and sing a chorus or two    Come on, it's
C majorC   A minorAm      DmDm      G7G7     C majorC
lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you.

[Chorus 2
     Gmaj7Gmaj7                E minorEm
There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray
   Cmaj7Cmaj7              A minorAm
It'll be the perfect ending a perfect day
     C majorC          FF    G+G    E minorEm  E7E7   A minorAm
We'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stop,
    E MajorE     Fm7Fm7   F#m7F#m7   BB     E MajorE
At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop.
DmDm    G+G
Pop! pop! pop!

     Gmaj7Gmaj7                 E minorEm
There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buy,
     Cmaj7Cmaj7                   A minorAm
When they pass around the chocolate and the pumpkin pie
   C majorC        FF    G+G    E minorEm  E7E7   A minorAm
It'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives
Dm7Dm7                                  G7G7
