[Intro]
F x4
[Verse 1]
F
I really like Christmas
Bb F
It’s sentimental I know, but I just really like it
F
I’m, I’m hardly religious
Bb F
I’d rather break bread with Dawkins than Desmond Tutu to be honest
C C7
And yes I have all of the usual objections to consumerism
Bb
To the commercialisation of an ancient religion
To the western-isation of a dead Palestinian
F
Press-ganged into selling PlayStations and beer
C
But I still really like it.
F
I’m looking forward to Christmas
Bb F
Though I’m not expecting a visit from Jesus
C
I’ll be seeing my dad
C7 A7 Dm
My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum
Dm/C Bb
They’ll be drinking white wine in the sun
C
I’ll be seeing my dad
C7 A7 Dm
My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum
Dm/C Bb
They’ll be drinking white wine in the sun.
[Verse 2]
F
I don’t go in for ancient wisdom
Bb F
I don’t believe just ’cause ideas are tenacious it means that they’re worthy
F
I get freaked out by churches
Bb F
Some of the hymns that they sing have nice chords but the lyrics are dodgy
C
And yes I have all of the usual objections
C7 Bb
To the mis-education of children who in tax-exempt institutions
Are taught to externalise blame
And to feel ashamed
F
And to judge things as plain right or wrong
C
But I quite like the songs.
F
I’m not expecting big presents
Bb F
The old combination of socks, jocks and chocolates is just fine by me.
C
‘Cause I’ll be seeing my dad
C7 A7 Dm
My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum
Dm/C Bb
They’ll be drinking white wine in the sun
C
I’ll be seeing my dad
C7 A7 Dm
My brother and sisters, my gran and my mum
Dm/C Bb
They’ll be drinking white wine in the sun.
[Chorus]
Bb
And you my baby girl
F/A
My jetlagged infant daughter
Gm7
You’ll be handed round the room
C Csus4 C
Like a puppy at a primary school
Bb
And you won't understand
F/A
But you will learn some day
Gm7
That wherever you are and whatever you face
C C7 A7 Dm
These are the people who’ll make you feel safe in this world
Dm/C Bb
My sweet blue-eyed girl
[Chorus]
Bb
And if my baby girl
F/A
When you’re twenty-one or thirty-one
Gm7
And Christmas comes around
C Csus4 C
And you find yourself nine thousand miles from home
Bb F/A Gm7 C
You’ll know what-ever---- comes
C7 A7 Dm
Your brothers and sisters, and me and your mum
Dm/C Bb
Will be waiting for you in the sun
C Csus4 C
whenever you come
C7
Your brothers and sisters, your aunts and your uncles
C7 A7 Dm
Your grandparents, cousins, and me and your mum
Dm/C Bb
We’ll be waiting for you in the sun
F/A Gm7
drinking white wine in the sun
C Bb
Darling, when xmas comes
F/A Gm7
We’ll be waiting for you in the sun
F/A Bb
drinking white wine in the sun
F/A Gm7
waiting for you in the sun
C Bb
waiting for you
[Interlude]
F/A
Gm7 C7
()
Wa -------iting.
[Outro]
F
I really like Christmas
Bb F
It’s sentimental I know.
