The Christmas Song

G11
C                       G11
All through the year we waited
                          Cmaj7 Dm7 Em7
Waited through spring and fall
        C            Am/f#
To hear silver bells ringing
    B7         Em7
see wintertime bringing
    Am7      D9        G11
The happiest season of all:
Cmaj7     Dm7            Em7       Fmaj7 G7
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, 
Cmaj7      Gm7     C7      Fmaj7   B7#9 E7
Jack Frost nipping at your nose, 
Am7      Dm7-5        Cmaj7     F#m7   B7

The Little Drummer Boy

 Our finest gifts we bring, pa rum pa pom pom

To lay before the King, pa rum pa pom pom,

  And so to honor Him, pa rum pa pom pom,
F       Bb

Little Baby, pa rum pa pom pom
I am a poor boy too, pa rum pa pom pom
I have no gift to bring, pa rum pa pom pom
That's fit to give a King, pa rum pa pom pom,

Christmas Blues

A7-9  . D7+9 . | G7-9 . F#7-9 . | B7+9 . E7 . | A7 . . .
    Dmaj7            Em7
The jingle bells are jingling
    Dmaj7                  A7+9
The streets are white with snow
    Dmaj7 Em7        F#m7 G 
The happy crowds are mingling
            D7           
But there's no one that I know
    G9
I'm sure that you'll forgive me
D7   C7        B7
If I don't enthuse
  E7-9               A7        F#7   B7  E7  A7
I guess I've got the Christmas blues
I've done my window shopping
There's not a store I've missed

O Come, All Ye Faithful (Adeste Fideles)
