White Wine In The Sun chords by Kate Miller-Heidke

Chords with lyrics

Just listen to the song to get the hang of the finger-picking, it's really simple!

Capo 4

INTRO: C majorC x 4

C majorC
I'm looking forward to Christmas
      FF                C majorC
It's sentimental I know, but I just really like it
C majorC
I'm hardly religious
          FF                    C majorC
I'd rather break bread with Dawkins than Desmond Tutu to be honest
        G+G                 FF
And yes I have all of the usual objections to consumerism
                    C majorC
The commercialisation of an ancient religion

And the western-isation of a dead Palestinian
                       G+G
Press-ganged into selling PlayStations and beer
              FF
But I still really like it.

C majorC
I, I really like Christmas
        FF           C majorC
Though I'm not expecting a visit from Jesus
          G+G
I'll be seeing my dad
   FF            E MajorE     A minorAm
My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum
        FF            C majorC
They'll be drinking white wine in the sun
          G+G
I'll be seeing my dad
  FF            E MajorE     A minorAm
My sisters and brother, my gran and my mum
       FF            C majorC
We'll be drinking white wine in the sun.


C majorC
I don't go for ancient wisdom
      FF                             C majorC
I don't believe just 'cause ideas are tenacious it means that they're worthy
C majorC
I get freaked out by churches
       FF                            C majorC
Some of the hymns that they sing have nice chords but the lyrics are dodgy
        G+G
And yes I have all of the usual objections
        FF                     C majorC
To the mis-education of children forced into a cult institution

And taught to externalise blame

And to feel ashamed
                    G+G
And to judge things as plain right and wrong
           FF
But I quite like the songs.

C majorC
I'm not expecting big presents
  FF                               C majorC
The old combination of socks, jocks and chocolate is just fine by me.
             G+G
'Cause I'll be seeing my dad
  FF            E MajorE     A minorAm
My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum
       FF             C majorC
They'll be drinking white wine in the sun
          G+G
I'll be seeing my dad
  FF            E MajorE     A minorAm
My sisters and brother, my gran and my mum
       FF            C majorC
They'll be drinking white wine in the sun.


  FF
And you my baby girl
  C majorC
My jetlagged infant daughter
      FF
You'll be handed round the room
    C majorC
Like a puppy at a primary school
  FF
And you're too young to know
        C majorC
But you will learn yourself one day
     FF
That wherever you are and whatever you face
FF                            A minorAm
These are the people who'll make you feel safe in this world
          ?
My sweet blue-eyed girl


    FF
And if my baby girl
       C majorC
When you're twenty-one or thirty-one
   FF
And Christmas comes around
     C majorC
And you find yourself nine thousand miles from home
    FF             G+G
You'll know whatever comes
    G+G                E MajorE          A minorAm
Your brother and sister, and me and your mum
       FF             C majorC
Will be waiting for you in the sun
C majorC               G+G
Girl, when Christmas comes
G+G
Your brothers and sisters, your aunts and your uncles
                         E MajorE           A minorAm
Your grandparents, cousins, and me and your mum
         FF                 C majorC
Will be drinking white wine in the sun
      FF                C majorC
We'll be waiting for you in the sun
FF
Baby, whenever you come
                   C majorC
We'll be drinking white wine in the sun
 FF
Waiting.


C majorC
I, I really like Christmas
      FF       C majorC
