3*   7*   7   -6   -5*    5*   5   5   5   
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
3*    -6   -5*   5*   5   -3*    3*
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
3*    3*   -3*    -3*   3*   -3*    5   -5*    -6   7
Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir
-6   6   6   -6*   6   -5*    5*    -5*
And folks dressed up like Eskimos
-5*    5*    5    -3*    3*
Everybody knows
7*  7   -6  -5*    5*   5   5   5  
A turkey and some mistletoe
3*   -6   -5*   5*   5    -3*    3*
Help to make the season bright
3*    3*   -3*   -3*    3*   -3*    5   -5*   -6    7
Tiny tots with their eyes all a glow
-6   -5*    5    -6    -5*    5*    3    3*
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
3*    3    3*    -6*   -6   -5*    -5    -5*
They know that Santa's on his way
3*   3   3*   -6*   -6    -6*    -6   -6*    -6    -5*    5*    -5*
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
3*   3    3*   6   -5*   6   -5*    5*   -4    5*
And every mother's child is gonna spy
-4   5*   -4   -3*   -3*   -3*    -3*   -3*   -3*   -3*   -3*
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
5   3*    7*   7    -6   -5*   5*    5   5   5
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
5   3*   -6   -5*   5*   5    -3*   3*
To kids from one to ninety-two
3*   3*    3   3*   -3*   3*   -3*   5   -5*   -6    7
Although it's been said many times many ways
7*   -6   -5*   3*   -3*   3*
Merry Christmas to you

(Interlude)

5*   -3   -7   7*   -6*   6   -5   5*   5*   5*
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
5*   -3   -6*   6   -5   5*   -4   -3
To kids from one to ninety-two
-3   -3    3*   -3   -4   -3   -4   5*   6   -6*   7*
Although it's been said many times many ways
-7   -6*   6    -3    
Merry Christmas to you
-7   -6*   6    -3    
Merry Christmas to you
-7   -6*   6   -3       -4           -3
Merry Christmas to you
