       A  EA
INTRO:     
VERSE:
 A
Bad little girls
E            A
 Bad little boys
Stay up all night
E              A
 Don't get no toys
VERSE:
      A F#m     A       F#m
It's easier to say than do
     E
You got to be good
              F#m      E
Cause Santa's got his eye on you so
     A
You got to be good (Gotta be good)
I know it's hard 'cause I'm far away
D                       B
  But I'll be back on Christmas Day
A       F#m         E
 Until then let me hear you say
     A
You got to be good (Gotta be good)
VERSE:
 A           F#m             A            F#m
Wait for the real thing and skip all the rest
     E
You got ta be good
                 F#m            E
Cause you're the one that this Santa loves the best
           A
So you've got to be good (Gotta be good)
And underneath that mistletoe
           D                         B
I'm gonna hold you tight and then I won't let go
A           F#m     E
 Because I really love you so
     A                             A
You got to be good (Gotta be good)
BREAK:
A  E
  (Gotta be good) You got to be good
A
So good (You got to be good)
A
I know it's hard when you're far away
D                      B
 But I'll be back on Christmas Day
A                   E
 Until then let me hear you say
     A
You got to be good (Better be good)
VERSE:
 E            A
Bad little girls
 E          A
Bad little boys
 E           A
Stay up all night
 E             A
Don't need no toys
OUTRO:
      A F#m     E       A
It's easier to say than do

 A    F#m       E       A
It's easier to say than do
