Santa Claus Is Coming To Town chords by Bruce Springsteen

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)


Let me set the stage for you
It's a cold December night
It's Christmas Eve!
And me and Steve are walking home from a bar down the boardwalk
It's snowing
As we look up in the distance,
we see something coming at us.
