Does anybody else

Feel like it take forever
To get to december

Throw out the turkey
I just want some cocoa

And jingle bells

                 E7
I can't make the days or the weeks
                      Am
Go by any faster, but I believe
     Cm
That Santa's been busy
Making some magic


🎄 Pre-Chorus:
    Cmaj7
For you and me
       Bm7
But if we could all be patient
         Am7
We would see
              Cm
Oh yes, we'll see


🎄 Chorus:
G     Em               C
 It's hard to wait for Christmas
        D               G
All the joy there is to share
             Em            C
Like cookies baking in the oven
             D                    Em
The sweetest smell that fills the air
               D/F#               G
Let's hold our hope and shine our light
            Cmaj7        Em
Before it's Christmas eve
             D/F#            G
We know this seasons so much more
              Cmaj7
Than presents and a tree,
Cmaj7 Cm

It's hard to wait for Christmas
Cm                     G         Em Cmaj7 Cm
 It's hard to wait for Christmas


🎄 Verse:
G
Have you ever thought
              E7/G#
About how the wisemen travelled
For so long on camels
   Am
To Bethlehem
Cm
Would that be like
We're on a road trip


🎄 Pre-Chorus:
   Cmaj7
To Disneyland
     Cmaj7                      Bm7
Oh I bet that was on long camel ride
        Bm7                    Bbm7 Am7
Their GPS a bright new star in the  sky
      Am7                        Cm
And I bet they got impatient sometimes
               Cm                   N.C.
(And I Think I kinda understand why)

The sweetest smell that fills the air
               D/F#               G
Let's hold our hope and shine our light
            Cmaj7        Em
Before it's Christmas eve

We know this seasons so much more
