Capo: 4

This is a gorgeous cover by Kate of a Tim Minchin song :) Just listen to the song to get the hang of the finger-picking, it's really simple! Capo 4 INTRO: C x 4

^CI'm looking forward to Christmas It's sentim^Fental I know, but I just really ^Clike it ^CI'm hardly religious I'd rather break br^Fead with Dawkins than Desmond Tutu to be ^Chonest And yes I have ^Gall of the usual objections to cons^Fumerism The commercialisation of an ancient rel^Cigion

And the western-isation of a dead Palestinian

Press-ganged into selling PlayStations and be^Ger But I still really like it. ^F

^CI, I really like Christmas Though I'm not ^Fexpecting a visit from ^CJesus I'll be seeing my d^Gad My br^Fother and sisters, my gr^Ean and my m^Amum They'll be drink^Fing white wine in the su^Cn I'll be seeing my d^Gad My s^Fisters and brother, my g^Eran and my ^Ammum We'll be drin^Fking white wine in the s^Cun.

^CI don't go for ancient wisdom I don't bel^Fieve just 'cause ideas are tenacious it means that they're ^Cworthy ^CI get freaked out by churches Some of the h^Fymns that they sing have nice chords but the lyrics are ^Cdodgy And yes I have ^Gall of the usual objections To the mis-educ^Fation of children forced into a cult insti^Ctution

And taught to externalise blame And to feel ashamed

And to judge things as plain right and w^Grong But I quite like the s^Fongs.

^CI'm not expecting big presents The ^Fold combination of socks, jocks and chocolate is just fine by ^Cme. 'Cause I'll be seeing my d^Gad My b^Frother and sisters, my g^Eran and my ^Ammum They'll be dri^Fnking white wine in the su^Cn I'll be seeing my d^Gad My ^Fsisters and brother, my g^Eran and my ^Ammum They'll be dri^Fnking white wine in the s^Cun.

And ^Fyou my baby girl My j^Cetlagged infant daughter You'll be h^Fanded round the room Like a p^Cuppy at a primary school And ^Fyou're too young to know But you will le^Carn yourself one day That where^Fver you are and whatever you face ^FThese are the people who'll make you feel safe in this w^Amorld ? My sweet blue-eyed girl

And if m^Fy baby girl When you're tw^Centy-one or thirty-one And C^Fhristmas comes around And you f^Cind yourself nine thousand miles from home You'll k^Fnow whatever comes ^G Your br^Gother and sister, and me and your^E mum ^Am Will be waitin^Fg for you in the sun ^C ^CGirl, when Christmas comes ^G ^GYour brothers and sisters, your aunts and your uncles Your grandparents, cousins, and me and your mum ^E ^Am Will be drinking ^Fwhite wine in the sun ^C We'll be wa^Fiting for you in the sun ^C ^FBaby, whenever you come We'll be drinking white wine in the s^Cun W^Faiting.

^CI, I really like Christmas It's sentim^Fental I know...^C
