bellame brothers, Old hippie Christmas chords
Start Jamming...
Well, it's that time of year again, [E]
everybody's running [B] around, decorating [F#] everything before
the fat man comes [F#] to town.
[E] Meanwhile at the commune, [B] he's getting ready too, [E] he's tie-dyeing t-shirts and making [B] love
beads just [F#] for you.
[B] He's trimming up his favorite tree, [E]
toking what he [B] grew.
Well, he's got the 8-track glass, and [E]
the incense burns by [B] candlelight.
Gene Autry's singing Rudolph, the Grateful Dead [F#] do Silent Night.
[E] And he's seen the evening news, [B] and the prospects still look dim, [E] but solutions for the planet,
[B] he knows, start right [F#] here with him.
[B] So he'll visualize this sacred [E] night, a world that ain't out [B] on a limb.
Yeah, [E] it's an old hippie Christmas, [B] weather's cold and hearts are warm.
[F#] Mama smokes a turkey, [B] while daddy smokes a barn.
[E] It's an old hippie Christmas, [B] just full of yuletime fun.
[F#] Jesus must have been a hippie, [E] peace and love to [B] everyone.
Well, the kids make up their wish list, [E]
sunshine wants the A [B]-bomb there.
Rainbow wants to go to Frisco, in an [F#] old Volkswagen van.
[E] And the black lights and the lava lamps [B] are flashing all about.
[E] And Santa in his sandals, [B]
leaves us little [F#] doubt, [B] that Christmas time is almost [E] here.
And it's gonna be [B] far out.
Yeah, it's [E] an old hippie Christmas, [B] weather's cold and hearts are warm.
[F#] Mama smokes a turkey, [B] while daddy smokes a barn.
It's [E] an old hippie Christmas, [B] full of yuletime fun.
Jesus [F#] must have been a hippie, peace and love to everyone.
[B]
Yeah, it's [E] an old hippie Christmas, [B] weather's cold and hearts are warm.
[F#] Mama smokes a turkey, [B] while daddy smokes a barn.
It's [E] an old, [B] full of yuletime fun.
