We Need A Little Christmas

(F)Haul out the holly,

put up the tree (Am)before my (Eb7)spirit (D7)falls again.

(Gm)Fill (C7)up the (Gm)stocking.

(C7)I may be (Gm7)rushing things, but (C7)deck the (Gm)halls (C7)again (Eb9)now.

(D7)For we (Gm7)need a little (C7)Christmas,

(Fmaj7)right this very (F6)minute,

(Gm7)candles in the (C7)window,

(F)carols at the spinet.

Yes, we (Gm7)need a little (C7)Christmas,

(Fmaj7)right this very (F6)minute.

It (G7)hasn't snowed a single flurry,

but (C7)Santa, dear, we're in a hurry.

So, (F)climb down the chimney,

turn on the brightest (Am)string of (Eb7)lights I've (D7)ever seen.

(Gm)Slice (C7)up the (Gm)fruitcake.

(C7)It's time we (Gm7)hung some tinsel (C7)on that (Gm)(C7)evergreen (Eb9)bough.

(D7)For I've (Gm7)grown a little (C7)leaner,

(Fmaj7)grown a little (F6)colder,

(Gm7)grown a little (C7)sadder,

(F)grown a little older and I (Gm7)need a little (C7)angel

(Fmaj7)sitting on my (F6)shoulder.

I (G7)hasn't snowed a single flurry,

but (C7)Santa, dear, we're in a hurry.

So, (Gm7)need a little (C7)Christmas (F)now.

(G)Haul out the holly.

For once I've taught you all to (F7)live each (E7)living day.

(Am)Fill (D7)up the (Am)stocking.

(D7)But, Auntie (Am7)Mame, it's one week (D7)past (Am7)Thanksgiving (D7)Day (Dm6)now.

(E)But we (Am7)need a little (D7)Christmas,

(Gmaj7)right this very (Em7)minute, (Am7)candles in the (D7)window,

(G)carols at the spinet.

(G#dim)Yes, we (Am7)need a little (D7)Christmas,

(Gmaj7)right this very (Em7)minute.

It (A7)hasn't snowed a single flurry,

but (F)Santa, dear, we're (Cm7)in a (F7)hurry.

So, (Bb)climb down the chimney.

It's been a long time since I (Ab7)felt good (G7)neighborly.

(Cm)Slice (F7)up the (Cm)fruitcake.

(F7)It's time we (Cm7)hung some tinsel on that (F)bayberry (Fm6)bough.

(G7)For we (Cm7)need a little (F7)Christmas (Bbmaj7)right this very (Gm7)minute,
