I Dont Know What Christmas Is But Christmastime Is Here Chords by Old 97’s

[Intro]

G
Out on the third planet 

closest to the sun
          Am          C
There’s a special celebration
       Am           C
And it sounds quite fun
  G
A jolly old fellow brings 

toys to everyone
     Am      C         G
On a holiday they call Christmas
        Am
Now I’m not gonna lie it makes 

no sense to me
    C
But here’s what earthlings told me
 A#                       A
About this Christmas mystery
N.C.
One, two, three, four!
 
[Verse]

D
Santa is a furry freak
     Bm
With epic superpowers
   D
He flies to every human home
   Bm
In under 14 hours
Em            A
He’s a master burglar
  Em             A
A pro at picking locks
   Em                     
If you don’t leave milk and 
A
cookies out
A#               A
He will put dung in your socks
 
[Verse]

D
If you act nicely through the night
    Bm
And don’t jump on your bed
D
Santa comes with sugar plums
    Bm
And hurls them at your head
    Em               A
But if you’re on his naughty list
          Em               A
He shoots missiles at your toes
   Em                    A
He might just roast your chestnuts
         A#            A
With his powerful flamethrow-er
 
[Chorus]

Bm    Bm    Bm    Bm    F#m
Rein, rein, rein, rein, rein
G     G     G     G     D
Deer, deer, deer, deer, deer
Bm                F#m
I don’t know what Christmas is
    G                D
But Christmastime is here
 
[Verse]

     D
He’s compelled his creepy elves
   Bm
To do his every wish
    D
One sought to be a dentist now
      Bm
He’s sleeping with the fish
Em              A
Mrs. Claus, she works the pole
Bm                A
Plans her man’s demise
Em                  A
Soon the elves will all rise up
    A#               A
And stab out Santa’s eyes
 
[Chorus]

Bm  Bm  Bm  Bm  F#m
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
G    G     G   G  D
Earthlings are so weird
Bm                F#m
I don’t know what Christmas is
    G                D
But Christmastime is here
 
[Chorus]

Bm  Bm  Bm  Bm  F#m
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
G    G     G   G  D
Earthlings are so weird
Bm                F#m
I don’t know what Christmas is
    G                D
But Christmastime is here
 
[Outro]

Bm                F#m
What the heck’s a turtledove?
    G               D
And who lit up that deer?
 
 
Bm                F#m
I don’t know what Christmas is
    G                D
But Christmastime is here
Bm                F#m
I don’t know what Christmas is
    G                D
But Christmastime is here
 
D
Or maybe it’s there
D
Or it’s somewhere
D
I don’t know
