Intro:

G  Em  C  D



Verse :

                    G                   Em9
(Kate) When I was a girl, just a little girl
           Am                        D
I couldn't wait 'til I became a woman
            G                Em9
And I could grow a thatch of curls
             Am                             D
A deep, dark forest to keep me warm in this cold world
            G                   Em9
Days became weeks, weeks became months
                 Am                    D
Months turned to years and it was like magic
            G                  Em
It grew and grew, the greatest bush
         Am           D
That the kingdom ever knew

Pre-Chorus:
           C
But at the turn of the millennium
  Em
A fever gripped the land
         Am
It was decreed that all the women
          D
Look like   little girls again

Chorus:
                      G                    Em
But now I'm growing a beard downstairs for Christmas
          C                    D
Growing a downstairs beard for you
              G                    Em
I'm growing a beard downstairs for Christmas
           C                      D                      (G)
Growing it big, growing it thick, growin' it for you-hoo-hoo
G                  Em
  Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas baby
C                      D                     (G)
  Merry Christmas
I'm growing it strong and true
G                  Em
  Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas baby
C               D
Ding dong, ding dong




Verse :
                      G                  Em9
(Johann) When I was a boy, just a little boy
        Am                     D
I was embarrassed by my body's changes
             G                Em9
But then one day at the local pool
                        Am                      D
I saw a life guard with hair growing out of his anus
           G                                     Em9
I was so impressed, it looked like Tom Selleck's chest
          Am                      D
He was so proud as he towelled it down
           G            Em9
I couldn't wait to cultivate
        Am            D
My very own hairy bum gown

Pre-Chorus:
           C
But at the start of the millennium
Em
Spandex gripped the land
      Am
Every back sack and crack was attacked with wax
        D                      N.C.
Now I'm growing it back, a gift for you to unwrap

Chorus:
                  G                    Em
Now I'm growing a beard downstairs for Christmas
              C                    D
I'm growing a downstairs beard for you
              G                    Em
I'm growing a beard downstairs for Christmas
               C                      D                      (G)
I'm growing it big, growing it thick, growin' it for you-hoo-hoo
G                  Em
  Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas baby
C                      D                     (G)
  Merry Christmas
I'm growing it strong and true
G                  Em
  Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas baby
C               D
Ding dong, ding dong

Bridge:

Em                           F#m G
  We'll keep each other warm at  night
Am                        Bm  F              G
  With our jingle bell hairy  stalactites
Em                            F#m  G
  We'll watch each other grow and  grow
     Am
I'll stick to you
I'll stick to you
     D
Like velcro

Chorus:
                     G                    Em
