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’m looking forward to Christmas
Though I’m noBbt expecting a visit fromF Jesus
I’ll be seeing myC dad
My brC7other and sisters, mAy gran and my muDmm
They’ll bDm/Ce drinking white wine in theBb sun
I’ll be seeing myC dad
My sC7isters and brother, mAy gran and my mDmum
We’ll bDm/Ce drinking white wine in theBb 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 who in tax-exempt instituBbtions
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 old combiBbnation of socks, jocks and chocolate is just fine by Fme.
‘Cause I’ll be seeing Cmy dad
My bC7rother and sisters, my Agran and my Dmmum
They’ll bDm/Ce drinking white wine in the sunBb
I’ll be seeing myC dad
My C7sisters and brother, my Agran and my Dmmum
They’ll bDm/Ce drinking white wine in the suBbn.
*from now on barre the 'C' - it sounds better!!*
And Bbyou my baby girl
My jF/Aetlagged infant daughter
You’ll beGm7 handed round the room
Like a Cpuppy at a pCsus4rimary Cschool
And Bbyou don't understand
But yF/Aou will learn yourself one day
That wGm7herever you are and whatever you face
CThese are the people who’lC7l make you feeAl safe in thiDms world
Dm/C My sweet blue-eyed Bbgirl
And Bbif my baby girl
When you’rF/Ae twenty-one or thirty-one
And Gm7Christmas comes around
And you fCind yourself six thousand Csus4miles from Chome
BbYou’lF/Al knoGm7w whatever---C- comes
Your brC7other and sister, and Ame and your mDmum
Will be Dm/Cwaiting for you in the sun Bb
whenever you comCe Csus4 C
C7Your brothers and sisters, your aunts and your uncles
Your grC7andparents, cousins, and Ame and your mDmum
We’ll bDm/Ce waiting for you in the Bbsun
F/Adrinking white wine in Gm7the sun
CDarling, when xmas Bbcomes
F/AWe’ll be waiting for you in thGm7e sun
F/Adrinking white wine in the suBbn
F/Awaiting for you in the Gm7sun
Cwaiting for you Bb
F/A
Gm7Waiting. C7
