Lyrics
What's (C)this?
What's this?
There's color (B)ev'rywhere.
What's this?
There's white things in the (C)air.
What's this?
I can't believe my (Em)eyes.
I must be (Cmaj7)dreaming.
Wake up, (Em6)Jack, this isn't (B)fair!
(G)What's (C)this?
What's this?
What's this?
There's something very (B)wrong.
What's this?
There's people singing (C)songs.
What's this?
The streets are lined with (Em)little creatures (Cmaj7)laughing.
(Em6)Ev'rybody seems so (B)happy.
Have I (Em)possibly gone (G7)daffy?
What is (F#dim7)this?
(G7)What's (C)this?
There're (Am)children throwing snowballs (Em)instead of throwing heads.
They're (Am)busy building toys and (Em)absolutely no one's dead.
There's (Gm)frost on ev'ry window.
Oh, I (Bbm)can't believe my eyes.
And (A)in my bones I feel the warmth that's (C#m)coming from (Ab)inside.
(Ab7)Oh, (Db)look!
What's this?
They're hanging (C)mistletoe.
They kiss?
Why, that looks so (Db)unique, inspired!
They're gathering (Fm)around to hear a (Dbmaj7)story,
roasting (Fm6)chestnuts on a (C)fire.
(Ab7)What's (Db)this?
What's this?
In here they've got a little (C)tree.
How queer!
And who would ever (Db)think, and why?
They're cov'ring it with (Fm)tiny little (Dbmaj7)things,
they've got (F6)electric lights on (C7)strings and there's a (Fm)smile on (Ab7)ev'ryone.
