I realised that no place on the internet seemed to have a tab of this song so I
thought I'd give it a try, hopefully I didn't do too badly :]
INTRO: F x4
FI’m looking forward to Christmas
It’s sentBbimental I know, but I just reallyF like it
FI’m, I’m hardly religious
I’d rather break Bbbread with Dawkins than Desmond Tutu to beF honest
And yes I have Call of the usual objections to consC7umerism
The commercialisation of an ancient relBbigion
And the western-isation of a dead Palestinian
Press-ganged into selling PlayStations and beFer
But I still really like it. C
FI, I really like Christmas
Though I’m noBbt expecting a visit fromF Jesus
I’ll be seeing myC dad
My brC7other and sisters, my gran and my mDmum
They’ll be drinking white wine in theBb sun
I’ll be seeing myC dad
My sC7isters and brother, my gran and my Dmmum
We’ll be drinking white wine in thBbe sun.
FI don’t go for ancient wisdom
I don’t bBbelieve just ’cause ideas are tenacious it means that they?F??re worthy
FI get freaked out by churches
Some of the hBbymns that they sing have nice chords but the lyrics are dFodgy
And yes I have Call of the usual objections
To the mis-educC7ation of children forced into a cult institBbution
And taught to externalise blame
And to feel ashamed
And to judge things as plain right and wFrong
But I quite like the sCongs.
FI’m not expecting big presents
The Bbold combination of socks, jocks and chocolate is just fine by mFe.
‘Cause I’ll be seeing Cmy dad
My bC7rother and sisters, my gran and my Dmmum
They’ll be drinking white wine in theBb sun
I’ll be seeing myC dad
My C7sisters and brother, my gran and my Dmmum
They’ll be drinking white wine in theBb sun.
And Bbyou my baby girl
My jFetlagged infant daughter
You’ll beBb handed round the room
Like a pFuppy at a primary school
And Bbyou’re too young to know
But you will leFarn yourself one day
That whereBbver you are and whatever you face
C7These are the people who’ll make you feel safe in this Dmworld
My sweet blue-eyed Fsus4girl
And if mBby baby girl
When you’re Ftwenty-one or thirty-one
And CBbhristmas comes around
And you fFind yourself nine thousand miles from home
You’llC7 know whateveCsus4r comes
Your brC7other and sister, and me and your Dmmum
Will be waiting for you in the Bbsun
C7Girl, when Christmas Csus4comes
C7Your brothers and sisters, your aunts and your uncles
Your grC7andparents, cousins, and me and your Dmmum
Will be drinking white wine in the sBbun
We’ll be Fwaiting for you in the sun
BbBaby, whenever you come
We’ll be drinking white wine in theF7 sun
WBbaiting.
FI, I really like Christmas
It’s sentBbimental I knowF.
