[Intro]
| A7 D7 G7 F#7 | B7 E7 A7 |

[Verse]
        Dmaj7                Em7
The jingle bells are jingling
        Dmaj7                          A7#9
The streets are white with snow
        Dmaj7 Em7            F#m7 G7
The happy crowds are mingling
                  D7
But there's no one that I know
       G7
I'm sure that you'll forgive me
D    C7       B7
If I don't enthuse
   E7                           A7            | F#7 B7 E7 A7 |
I guess I've got the Christmas blues

[Verse]
       Dmaj7                    Em7
I've done my window shopping
             Dmaj7                A7#9
There's not a store I've missed
       Dmaj7        Em7      F#m7 G7
But what's the use of stopping
                      D7
When there's no one on your list
            G7
You'll know the way I'm feeling
           D            C7          B
When you love and you lose
   E7                           A7            D7
I guess I've got the Christmas blues

[Bridge]
F#m7                   B7
When somebody wants you
F#m7           B7
Somebody needs you
Em                   C/E      Em6
Christmas is a joy of joy
       G#m7                        C#7
But friends when you're lonely
G#m7                     C#7
You'll find that it's only
    F#m7              B7      Em7         A7
A thing for little girls and little boys

[Verse]
        Dmaj7                  Em7
May all your days be merry
         Dmaj7                A7#9
Your seasons full of cheer
      Dmaj7    Em7 F#m7 G7
But 'til it's Janua- ry
                  D7
I'll just go and disappear
       G7
Oh Santa may have brought you
           D            C7      B7
Some stars for your shoes
        E7                A7                    | F#7 B7 |
But Santa only brought me the blues
            E7                                                A7                 | D7 G7 F#7 | B7 E7 A7 |
