Making Christmas (from The Nightmare Before Christmas)

This (B)time...

(Am)This (Dm6)time...

(Am)Making Christmas.

Making Christmas.

(Am)Making Christmas, making Christmas is so fine.

It's (Am6)ours this time, and won't the children be surprised?

It's (Am)ours this (B)time!

(Em)Making Christmas, making

Christmas, making Christmas.

(C#m)Time to give them something fun they'll talk about for years to come.

Let's have a cheer from ev'ryone.

It's time to party!

(Em)Making (C)Christmas, (C#dim)making (C)(B7)Christmas.

(Em)Snakes and mice get wrapped up so nice

with (Bbm)spider legs and pretty

(Gm)It's ours this (A7)time!

(Dm)All together, (Bb)that and this, with (G7)all our tricks we're (Bb)(E7)making (Dm)(A7)(Dm)Christmastime!

Here comes Jack!

I (Bbdim7)don't (Dm)believe what's (E)happ'ning to (Bm)me.

My (Em6)hopes, my (Bm)dreams...

my (E)(F#)(B)fantasies.

(Dm6)Won't they be impressed?

I am a genius!

See (Bm)how I transformed this old rat into a most delightful hat.

(B)My (Em)compliments, from (B7)me to you,

on (Em)this, your most (B7)intriguing hat.

(Em)Consider, though, this (Am)substitute:

A (Em)bat in place of (B7)this old rat.

(Dm)No, no, no, now (Gm)that's all wrong.

This (Dm)thing will never (A7)make a present.

(Dm)It's been dead for (Gm)much too long.

Try (Dm)something fresher, (A7)something pleasant.

(Dm)All together, (Bb)that and this, with (G7)all our tricks we're (Bb)(E7)making (Dm)(A7)(Dm)Christmastime!

(Fm6)Making Christmas, making

Christmas, la, la la!

It's (Dm)almost here and we can't wait,

so ring the bells and celebrate.

'Cause when the full moon starts to climb,

we'll all sing out:

It's (Gm6)(A7)(Dm)Christmastime!
