Christmas Wrapping - The Waitresses chords

Key: A Singer/Band: The Waitresses


[A]Bah Humbug, now that's too strong! 'Cause it is my favorite holiday
But [D]all this year's been a busy blur Don't [Dm]think I have the energy
To [A]add to my already mad rush Just 'cause it's 'tis the season
The [D]perfect gift for me would be Com[Dm]pletions and connections left from
[A]Last year Ski shop encounter most interesting
[D]Had his number but never the time [Dm]Most of '81 passed along those lines
So [A]deck those halls Trim those trees Raise up cups of Christmas cheer
[D]I just need to catch my breath [E7]Christmas by myself this [A]year
[A]Calendar picture, frozen landscape Chill this room for twenty-four days
[D]Evergreens Sparkling snow [Dm]Get this winter over with!
Flash back to [A]spring time saw him again Would have been good to go for
lunch
[D]Couldn't agree when we were both free we [Dm]tried, we said we'd keep in
touch
[A]Didn't of course 'till summertime Out to the beach to his boat Could I join
him?
[D]No This time it was me [Dm]Sunburn in the third degree
[A]Now the calendar's just one page Of course I am excited
To[D]night's the night I've set my mind Not to [E7]do too much about [A]it
Merry [A]Christmas, merry Christmas But I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry [A]Christmas, merry Christmas But I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry [A]Christmas, merry Christmas But I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry [A]Christmas, merry Christmas But I think I'll miss this one this year
[A]Hardly dashing through the snow 'Cause I bundled up too tight
[D]Last minute have-to-dos A few [Dm]cards, a few calls
Because it's [A]RSVP No, thanks No party lights
It's [D]Christmas Eve, gonna relax [Dm]turn down all of my invites
[A]Last fall I had a night to myself same guy called, Halloween party
[D]Waited all night for him to show [Dm]this time his car wouldn't go
For[A]get it, it's cold, it's getting late trudge on home to celebrate
In a [D]quiet way unwind [Dm]Doing Christmas right this time
[A]A&P has provided me With the world's smallest turkey
Al[D]ready in the oven, nice and hot Oh [Dm]damn! Guess what I forgot
So [A]on with the boots Back out in the snow To the only all night grocery
When [D]what to my wondering eyes should appear In the [Dm]line is that guy
I've been chasing all year
[A]'Spending this one alone, ' he said 'Give me a break, this year's been
crazy'
I [D]said 'Me too, but why are you You mean [Dm]you forgot cranberries too?'
Then [A]suddenly we laughed and laughed Caught on to what was happening
That [D]Christmas magic's brought this [E7]tale To a very happy [A]ending
Merry [A]Christmas, merry Christmas Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry [A]Christmas, merry ChristmasCouldn't miss this one this year
Merry [A]Christmas, merry Christmas Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry [A]Christmas, merry ChristmasCouldn't miss this one this year
