Amaj7Amaj7 G#m7G#m7 Gm7Gm7 F#m7F#m7 E MajorE
E A7A7 B7B7
E MajorE F#m7F#m7 G#m7G#m7 Amaj7Amaj7
This year's been hard on all of us, we seen our share of hills
E MajorE F#m7F#m7 G#m7G#m7 Amaj7Amaj7
We're making it by tooth and nail, we're countin up the bills
E MajorE F#m7F#m7 G#m7G#m7 Amaj7Amaj7
As Christmas time approaches, I'm don't feel like I should
Amaj7Amaj7 G#m7G#m7 Gm7Gm7 F#m7F#m7 E MajorE A7A7 B7B7
Cause honestly I haven't been that good
E MajorE F#m7F#m7 G#m7G#m7 Amaj7Amaj7
So as I lay in bed last night despairing o'er my sins
E MajorE F#m7F#m7 G#m7G#m7 Amaj7Amaj7
I heard the faintest whisper like a voice caught in the wind
E MajorE F#m7F#m7 G#m7G#m7 Amaj7Amaj7
Well I know this may sound crazy, but I heard it oh so clear
Amaj7Amaj7 G#m7G#m7 Gm7Gm7 F#m7F#m7 E MajorE A7A7 B7B7
I heard that Santa's taking credit this year
E MajorE A augmentedA
If Santa's taking credit on "being good" this year
E MajorE B7B7
Then I'll expect to see his eight tiny reindeer
E MajorE A augmentedA A minorAm
But without it I cannot afford to spread some Christmas cheer
E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE
So Santa, bring a present, and I'll make it up next year
E MajorE A augmentedA
Well in our modern economy, nobody pays up front
E MajorE B7B7
put it all on credit, and pay it off at the end of the month
E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
well Santa should be no different, and it seems completely fair
E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE
Even if I've been more naughty than nice, I can make it up next year
E MajorE A augmentedA
If Santa's taking credit on "being good" this year
E MajorE B7B7
Then I'll expect to see his eight tiny reindeer
E MajorE A augmentedA A minorAm
But without it I cannot afford to spread some Christmas cheer
E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE
So Santa, bring a present, and I'll make it up next year
A augmentedA E MajorE
And I know that it may
A augmentedA E MajorE
Seem to be so senseless
A augmentedA E MajorE
for Santa to reward me
F#F# B/C\B
but he's doing it for the interest
E MajorE F#m7F#m7 G#m7G#m7 Amaj7Amaj7
So, if you're like me your worried about your presents this year
Amaj7Amaj7 G#m7G#m7 F#m7F#m7
If you're nice he won't forget it
Amaj7Amaj7 G#m7G#m7 Gm7Gm7
If you're naughty don't you sweat it
Amaj7Amaj7 G#m7G#m7 Gm7Gm7 F#m7F#m7 E MajorE A7A7 B7B7
Cause Santa's taking credit this year
