[Chorus]
DHey, Santa can yGou hear?
EmThis is what I want for Christmas
AAnd all year.
DHey, Santa tell Gme now.
EmIf you can make it all work out somehow.A  
[Verse 1]
I got a lonDg list of all the things that I want.
I eEmven typed it out in Helvetica font.
Don’t need to wrap it or Gput it under a tree,
just get on it asap anAd then give it to me.
ChriDstmas only comes around one time every year.
Why can't every daEmy be full of laughter and cheer?
Why do tGhe holidays mean we get winter break?
SantAa can you make it Christmas every day?
Take Dme to a warm place with a cabana.
Where they gEmive you smoothies made out of bananas.
Sorry, pleaseG? Where are my manners?
Can I get a Areally nice polaroid camera,
to taDke pics with my friends, I want those too,
Emand maybe a nice Maserati Grand Sport Coupe,
to take you, Gyou, and my new crew.
Thanks, Santa whAat would I do without you?
[Chorus]
DHey, Santa can yGou hear?
EmThis is what I want for Christmas
AAnd all year.
DHey, Santa tell Gme now.
EmIf you can make it all work out somehow.A  
[Verse 2]
Can you make Mr. DRight appear under the mistletoe?
Can you give mEme peace on earth and can I get a little bit of hope?
ClGiche? I know. Just let it, go.
I waAnt another guitar wrapped in a big giant bow.
I wanDt to take a nap and sleep all day,
get an A Emon my finals, A A A!
I waGnt to eat doughnuts that won't make me fat,
I want my crush to Aknow that I exist, where you at?
So herDe are more things that I want. What do you want?
a chocEmolate croissant. Make sure it's a heated croissant.
I waGnt to be able to rap fast. Show us what you got.
Ba da bing Aba da boom ba da bang ba da bang ba da bang. What?
A laptDop, new shoes, an iPhone will do.
Happy thoughtEms, good news, and Merry Christmas, to you.
We also Gwant just one tiny thing,
we want everyone Ato join in and sing.
Chorus (2x):
DHey, Santa can yGou hear?
EmThis is what I want for Christmas
AAnd all year.
DHey, Santa tell Gme now.
EmIf you can make it all work out somehow.A  D

[Chorus]

D G

Hey, Santa can you hear?

This is what I want for Christmas

And all year.

D G

Hey, Santa tell me now.

Em A

If you can make it all work out somehow.

[Verse 1]

I got a long list of all the things that I want.

I even typed it out in Helvetica font.

Don’t need to wrap it or put it under a tree,

just get on it asap and then give it to me.

Christmas only comes around one time every year.

Why can't every day be full of laughter and cheer?

Why do the holidays mean we get winter break?

Santa can you make it Christmas every day?

Take me to a warm place with a cabana.

Where they give you smoothies made out of bananas.

Sorry, please? Where are my manners?

Can I get a really nice polaroid camera,

to take pics with my friends, I want those too,

and maybe a nice Maserati Grand Sport Coupe,

to take you, you, and my new crew.

Thanks, Santa what would I do without you?

[Chorus]

D G

Hey, Santa can you hear?

This is what I want for Christmas

And all year.

D G

Hey, Santa tell me now.

Em A

If you can make it all work out somehow.

[Verse 2]

Can you make Mr. Right appear under the mistletoe?

Can you give me peace on earth and can I get a little bit of hope?

Cliche? I know. Just let it, go.

I want another guitar wrapped in a big giant bow.

I want to take a nap and sleep all day,

get an A on my finals, A A A!

I want to eat doughnuts that won't make me fat,

I want my crush to know that I exist, where you at?

So here are more things that I want. What do you want?

a chocolate croissant. Make sure it's a heated croissant.

I want to be able to rap fast. Show us what you got.

Ba da bing ba da boom ba da bang ba da bang ba da bang. What?

A laptop, new shoes, an iPhone will do.

Happy thoughts, good news, and Merry Christmas, to you.

We also want just one tiny thing,

we want everyone to join in and sing.

Chorus (2x):

D G

Hey, Santa can you hear?

This is what I want for Christmas

And all year.

D G

Hey, Santa tell me now.

Em A D

If you can make it all work out somehow.
