Away In a Manger

Away in a manger no crib for a bed

The little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head

The stars in the sky look down where he lay
5 1 5 1
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

The cattle are lowing the Baby awakes

But little Lord Jesus no crying He makes

I love Thee, Lord Jesus look down from the sky

And stay by my cradle 'til morning is nigh.

And fit us for Heaven to live with Thee there.

Christmas in Prison

G C
It was Christmas in Prison and the food was real good,
G D
We had turkey and pistols carved out of wood.
G C
And I dream of her always even when I don't dream,
G D G
Her name's on my tongue, and her blood's in my strength

Chorus:
D C G C G D
Wait awhile Eternity, ol' Mother Natures got nothing on me,
G C
Come to me, run to me, come to me now,
G D G
We're rolling my sweatheart, were flowing, by God.

She reminds me of a chess game with someone I admire,
Or a picnic in the rain after a prairie fire,
And her heart is as big as this whole ***damn jail,
She's sweeter than saccarin at a drug store sale.

Chorus

[instrumental verse]

The searchlight in the big yard swings round with the gun,
And spotlights the snowflakes like the dust in the sun.
It's Christmas in Prison, there'll be music tonight,
I'll probably get homesick, I love you, goodnight.

Chorus

I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day

G + C D Em C#m7b5 F#7 Bm
I heard the bells on Christmas day Their old familiar carols play
Am D G E Am E Am E A D
And mild and sweet the words repeat, Of peace on earth, good will to men
G + C D Em C#m7b5 F#7 Bm
I thought how as the day had come, The belfries of all Christendom
Am D Bm7b5 E Am E Am E Am D G
Had roll'd along th' unbroken song Of peace on earth, good will to men
G + C D Em C#m7b5 F#7 Bm
And in despair I bow'd my head "There is no peace on earth," I said
Am D G E Am E Am E A D
For hate is strong, and mocks the song of peace on earth, good will to men
G + C D Em C#m7b5 F#7 Bm
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep God is not dead, nor doth He sleep
Am D Bm7b5 E Am E Am E Am D G
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail With peace on earth, good will to men
G + C D Em C#m7b5 F#7 Bm
'Til ringing, singing on its way The world revolved from night to day
Am D Bm7b5 E Am E Am E Am D G
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime Of peace on earth, good will to men

IT CAME UPON THE MIDNIGHT CLEAR

A + D A
It came upon the midnight clear
B7 E
That glorious song of old
A + D A
From angels bending near the earth
Bm E A
To touch their harps of gold
C#7 F#m C#7 F#m
"Peace on the earth, good will to men
B7 E
From heav'ns all gracious King
A + D A
The world in solemn stillness lay
D E A
To hear the angels sing

Still through the cloven skies they come
With peaceful wings unfurled
And still their heavenly music floats
O'er all the weary world;
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing.
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing.

For lo! the days are hastening on,
By prophet bards foretold,
When, with the ever-circling years,
Shall come the Age of Gold;
When peace shall over all the earth
Its ancient splendors fling,
And all the world give back the song
Which now the angels sing.

RUDOLPH THE RED-NOSED REINDEER KEY OF G AND D

You know Dasher and Dancer
And Prancer and Vixen
Comet and Cupid
And Donner and Blitzen
But do you recall
The most famous reindeer of all

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer (reindeer)
Had a very shiny nose (like a light bulb)
And if you ever saw it (saw it)
You would even say it glows (like a flash light)
All of the other reindeer (reindeer)
Used to laugh and call him names (like Pinochio)
They wouldn't let poor Rudolph (Rudolph)
Play in any reindeer games (like Monopoly)

Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say (Ho Ho Ho)
Rudolph with your nose so bright [
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight
Then all the reindeer loved him (loved him)
And they shouted out with glee (yippee)
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer (reindeer)
You'll go down in history (like Columbus)

Run, Run, Ruldolph

Out of all the reindeers you know you're the mastermind
Run, run Rudolph, Randolph ain't too far behind

Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town
Santa make him hurry tell him he can take the freeway down
Run run Rudolph cause I'm realin' like a merry-go-round

Said Santa to a boy child What have you been longing for
All I want for Christmas is a Rock and Roll'lectric guitar
And then away went Rudolph a whizzing like a shooting star

Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town
Santa make him hurry tell him he can take the freeway down
Run run Rudolph realin' like a merry-go-round

Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town
Santa make him hurry tell him he can take the freeway down
Run run Rudolph cause I'm realin' like a merry-go-round
Said Santa to a girl child what would please you most to get
"A little baby doll that can cry, sleep, drink and wet"
And away went Rudolph a whizzing like a Saber jet

Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town
Santa make him hurry tell him he can take the freeway down
Run run Rudolph cause I'm realin' like a merry-go-round

Santa Claus Is Back In Town

Well, it's Christmas time pretty baby
And the snow is fallin' on the ground
Well, it's Christmas time pretty baby
And the snow is on the ground
Well, you be a real good little girl
Santa Claus is back in town

Got no sleigh with reindeer, no sack on my back
You're gonna see me comin' in a big black Cadillac
Whoa oh it's Christmas time pretty baby
And the snow is fallin' on the ground
Well, you be a real good little baby
Santa Claus is back in town

Hang up your pretty stockings, turn off the light
Santa Claus is comin' down your chimney tonight
Whoa oh oh oh it's Christmas time pretty baby
And the snow is fallin' on the ground
Well, you be a real good little baby
Santa Claus is back in town

SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO TOWN

You better watch out You better not cry
Better not pout I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town

He's making a list, And checking it twice;
Gonna find out Who's naughty and nice.
Santa Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake

Oh! You better watch out! You better not cry
Better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town.

Santa Looked a Lot Like Daddy G G G C D D D G

G
Santa looked like daddy
C
Or daddy looked like him
D
It's not the way I had him pictured
G
Santa was a much too thin

He didn't come down the chimney
C
So momma must have let him in
D
Santa looked a lot like daddy
G
Or daddy looked a lot like him


Well, they thought I was fast a sleepin'
They thought I was tucked in bed
They never thought I'd come a peepin'
Or that I'd hear what was said

Santa put his arm around mama
And mama put her arm around him
So if Santa Claus ain't daddy,
I'm a gonna tell on him

Chorus

I never saw Dancer or Prancer
I never heard the sleigh bells ring
I never saw the Red Nosed reindeer
Like they show on the TV screen

But he sure brought a lot of presents
So Santa Claus he must have been
Well he sure looked a lot like Daddy
And daddy looked a lot like him

SILVER BELLS

CITY SIDEWALKS, BUSY SIDEWALKS,
DRESSED IN HOLIDAY STYLE
IN THE AIR THERE'S A FEELING OF CHRISTMAS
CHILDREN LAUGHING, PEOPLE PASSING
SHARING SMILE AFTER SMILE
AND ON EVERY STREET CORNER YOU'LL HEAR

(Chorus)
SILVER BELLS, SILVER BELLS,
IT'S CHRISTMAS TIME IN THE CITY
RING-A-LING, HEAR THEM RING,
SOON IT WILL BE CHRISTMAS DAY.

CITY STOPLIGHT, BUSY STOP LIGHTS,
BLINK A BRIGHT RED AND GREEN
AS THE SHOPPERS RUSH HOME WITH THEIR TREASURES
HEAR THE SNOW CRUNCH, SEE THE KIDS BUNCH,
THIS IS SANTA'S BIG SCENE
AND ABOVE ALL THE BUSTLE YOU'LL HEAR

Sleigh Ride

A
Just hear those sleigh bells jingle-ing Ring ting tingle-ing too
Come on, it's lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling And friends are calling "You Hoo"
Come on, it's lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you
D#m7
Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap let's go
Let's look at the snow
We're riding in a wonderland of snow
Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap it's grand
Just holding your hand
We're gliding along with the song
Of a wintry fairy land

Our cheeks are nice and rosy And comfy cozy are we
We're snuggled up together like two Birds of a feather would be
Let's take the road before us And sing a chorus or two
Come on, it's lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you
Amaj9
There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray
It'll be the perfect ending of a perfect day
We'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stop
At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop
Pop! Pop! Pop!

There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buy
When they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie
It'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives
These wonderful things are the things
We remember all through our lives

THE FIRST NOEL

A D A D A G D
The first Noel the angel did say
G D Em D A D A D
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
A D A D A G D
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
G D Em D A D A D
On a cold winters night that was so deep
A D F#m D G D
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Bm /A G D A D A D
Born is the King of Israel

A D A DA G D
They looked up and saw a star,
G D Em D A D A D
Shining in the East, beyond them far;
A D A D A G D
And to the earth it gave great light;
G D Em D A D A D
And so it continued both day and night.

A D A D A G D
This star drew nigh to the North West,
G D Em D A D A D
O'er Bethlehem it took its rest,
A D A D A G D
And there it did stop and stay,
G D Em D A D A D
Right over the place where Jesus lay.

A D A D A G D
Then enter'd in there Wise Men three
G D Em DA D A D
Full rev'rently on bended knee,
A D A D A G D
And offered there in His presence
G D Em D A D A D
Their gold and myrrh and frankincense.

Up on the House Top

Up on the housetop reindeer pause
Out jumps good old Santa Clause
Down thru the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones
Christmas joys
Chorus
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go!
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go!
Up on the housetop
Click, click, click
Down thru the chimney with Good Saint Nick
First comes the stocking Of little Nell
Oh, dear Santa Fill it well
Give her a dolly That laughs and cries
One that will open And shut her eyes
Chorus
Next comes the stocking Of little Will
Oh, just see what A glorious fill
Here is a hammer And lots of tacks
Also a ball And a whip that cracks
Chorus

White Christmas

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
with every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmas's be white

WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS

We wish you a merry Christmas [G C]
We wish you a merry Christmas [A7 D7]
We wish you a merry Christmas [B7 Em]
And a Happy New Year [C D7 G]

Good tidings we bring [C D]
To you and your king [A9 D]
Good tidings for Christmas [G]
And a Happy New Year [Am D7 G]

Oh, bring us a figgy pudding...
and a cup of good cheer.

We won't go until we get some...
so bring some out here.

We wish you a merry Christmas...
and a Happy New Year

WINTER WONDERLAND

Sleigh bells ring are you listenin'
In the lane snow is glistenin'
A beautiful sight were happy tonight
Walkin' in the winter wonderland

Gone away is the blue bird
Here to stay is the new bird
He sings our love song as we go along
walkin' in the winter wonderland


In the meadow we can build snowman
and pretend he is parson Brown
He'll say are you married
we'll say no man
But you can do the job when you're in town

Later on we'll conspire
as we dream by the fire
To face unafraid the plans that we made
walkin' in a winter wonderland.
